Mamdani's Socialist Takeover Doesn't Stop In New York

Rapid Response

Tuesday’s Democrat wins in New York City are a warning sign to the rise of socialism that is sweeping the Democrat party.




Despite not being able to answer where socialist policies have ever worked, more and more Democrats are leaning into these disastrous policies:

  • Ro Khanna: "The progressive movement is on the ascendancy… this is really where the energy of the party is."
  • Cory Booker: "One of things that makes the Democratic party great is it's a big tent party, we need to stay that way."

Last November after Zohran Mamdani was elected as New York City Mayor, 98 House Democrats voted against condemning socialism. Only a few short months later, we are seeing Mamdani's footprint expand.

 

Every Democrat this cycle must answer if they align with this socialist agenda.
