Zohran Mamdani: “I put forward a plan to build more housing than New York…”

“… meeting, I have gone back to the President with our hopes for what it could look like to actually put this city on better footing in the years to come. I put forward a plan to build more housing than New York City has seen in any single housing development since the early 70s. Alongside that, I also made clear to the President, as I have before, my continued belief that ICE raids are cruel and inhumane, that they do nothing to advance the cause of public safety.” (08:53–09:00)
