Mamdani Promises Universal Childcare, Free Buses By Taxing the Wealthy

Zohran Mamdani was sworn in as New York City’s mayor today. 

The 34-year-old promised universal childcare for the many by taxing the wealthiest few. U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders swore Mamdani into office and even Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez made an appearance. 

 “The cost of childcare will no longer discourage young adults from starting a family because we will provide universal childcare for the many by taxing the wealthiest few,” Mamdani told the crowd. “Those in rent-stabilized homes will no longer dread the latest rent hike because we will freeze the rent. Getting on a bus without worrying about a fare hike or whether you’ll be able to get to your destination on time will no longer be deemed a small miracle because we will make those buses fast and free. “These policies are not simply about the costs that we make free but the lives that we fill with freedom. For too long in our city, freedom has belonged only to those who could afford to buy it.”
