Sen. Bernie Sanders has endorsed Zohran Mamdani in the New York City mayoral race, highlighting the choice between traditional politics dominated by billionaires and a movement focusing on everyday people. Sanders emphasizes the necessity for new leadership prepared to combat corporate influences. He praises Mamdani's grassroots campaign, funded by small donations, contrasting it with former Gov. Andrew Cuomo's backing from wealthy donors. Sanders believes Mamdani represents the vision needed to fight oligarchy and promote progressive policies like affordable housing and public transportation.
"The New York City Democratic primary presents a clear choice as to the path forward. We need a new politics and new leadership which is prepared to stand up to powerful corporate interests and fight for the working class."
"At this pivotal and dangerous moment in American history, status quo politics is not good enough. We need the kind of visionary leadership that Zohran is providing in this campaign."
