The mayoral primary winner Zohran Mamdani has come under fire for what his critics perceive as unrealistic policies. But one progressive economist regards him as a model for any politician seeking to counter the rise of right-wing populists. nyer.cm/rzBZtdD

One economist questioned the notion that wealthy people would leave New York en masse after a tax hike, adding that people on more modest incomes are more sensitive to rising costs. “For the super-rich, the calculus is completely different,” she said. nyer.cm/VIbdQCw

Many seniors can’t afford dental care, hearing aids or glasses. I’m proud that all Democrats supported my amendment last night to expand Medicare to cover dental, hearing and vision paid for by cutting prescription drug costs for Medicare in half. No Republicans voted for it.

This bill is an act of violence against our communities. At a time of extreme income and wealth inequality, while 60% of Americans are living paycheck to paycheck, this budget is absolutely devastating for the working families we represent.

No one voted to kick 17 MILLION people off their health care. No one voted to RAISE the cost of groceries. No one voted to give handouts to BILLIONAIRES. Donald Trump and Republicans just sold out working people. This is a gut punch — but we will NOT stop fighting back.
