Summary

Zohran Mamdani was sworn in on January 1, 2026 as New York City's 112th mayor — its first Muslim and Asian American mayor, and the first from Queens.
A democratic socialist who beat Eric Adams's coalition in the 2025 election, the former state assemblyman rose from relative obscurity to City Hall.
He campaigned on freezing the rent, making buses fare-free and delivering universal childcare.

The question

Mamdani's democratic-socialist agenda can actually make New York more affordable.
