Mayor Mamdani's lessons from Fiorello La Guardia
On the night Zohran Mamdani was elected mayor of New York City, he promised the “most ambitious agenda to tackle the cost-of-living crisis that this city has seen since the days of Fiorello La Guardia” Since taking office in January, the 34-year-old mayor has embraced the 100-day benchmark for his ambitious plans.
It’s now been 100 days. So what does Mamdani have to say about the start of his tenure?
On April 20, WNYC’s Senior Politics Reporter Brigid Bergin plans to find out during a live conversation about Mamdani’s first 100 days at the Greene Space.
He’ll take questions about what his administration has done so far, where it’s headed and what lessons he’s drawn from the legacy of La Guardia, who notably spoke directly to New Yorkers over WNYC’s airwaves.
We’re livestreaming the event on WNYC’s YouTube channel. We’ll even select a few questions from virtual attendees which you can submit ahead of the event.
