We're Mayor Zohran Mamdani, Deputy Mayor for Housing Leila Bozorg, and Cea Weaver from the Mayor's Office to Protect Tenants. We're here to talk about housing: how we build more of it, protect tenants, and push back against the landlords and speculators pricing New Yorkers out. Ask us anything.

New York City's housing crisis is real, and New Yorkers are dealing with it every day. Skyrocketing rents. Exploitative landlords.

New York City's housing crisis is real, and New Yorkers are dealing with it every day. Skyrocketing rents. Exploitative landlords. Not enough affordable housing. And a system that hasn’t worked for the people who need it most. In our first 100 days, we’ve started to change that. On day one, we created the Mayor's Office to Protect Tenants – because renters deserve an advocate in City Hall. We've held Rental Ripoff Hearings in four boroughs – listening to New Yorkers talk about what's happening in their buildings, their neighborhoods, and to their families. Tomorrow, we’re holding our final hearing in Staten Island. We're fighting on every front: strengthening tenant protections, taking on bad landlords, driving down costs, and building the housing this city actually needs. And we're just getting started. Ask us about: Holding bad landlords accountable Affordability, rent stabilization, and housing supply New tenant protections in the pipeline Tackling deed theft and protecting homeowners How SEQRA reform factors into our housing agenda How the Mayor's Office to Protect Tenants (MOPT) works, and how to use it Verification: https://bsky.app/profile/mayor.nyc.gov/post/3mitaoxlct22c submitted by /u/mayor_mamdani [link] [comments]
