"Mamdani’s proposals would make the city more livable for working people while improving public goods — from transit to child care — that benefit everyone, including those footing a slightly higher tax bill."
Tax the Rich. They'll Stay
Mamdani’s plan to tax New York’s millionaires has the penthouse crowd aflutter. History and data show they won’t fly the coop.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.
This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.
It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

America is beautiful, contradictory, unfinished. I am proud of our country even as we constantly strive to make it better, to protect and deepen our democracy, to fulfill its promise for each and every person who calls it home.
Happy Independence Day. No Kings in America.

Whether I’m in a union hall or on Bloomberg, the message is the same: raise taxes on the wealthiest individuals and most profitable corporations to invest in public goods for the many.

The playbook is simple.
The billionaires hiking prices and cutting jobs want workers fighting and blaming each other so they can keep getting rich off our backs and laughing their way to the bank.
Immigrants aren’t the problem. Billionaires are.
