    Mayor Zohran Mamdani, recently inaugurated in NYC (early 2026), has quickly enacted policies focusing on affordability, tenant rights, and public services, including a rent freeze pledge, cracking down on junk fees, establishing city-run food markets, appointing a tenant-focused lead for housing, and creating an Office of Mass Engagement, all while maintaining continuity in public safety by keeping Police Commissioner Tisch. Key areas include housing (tripling affordable units), fighting exploitation (delivery apps, junk fees), education, and social programs like free childcare, aligning with his democratic socialist platform.
