“In one of his first acts as mayor, Zohran Mamdani revoked nine executive orders his predecessor, Eric Adams, issued after his federal corruption indictment, a move that undid actions pertaining to everything from antisemitism and immigration to New York City’s horse carriage industry,” the New York Daily News reports.
“Mamdani said he picked the indictment date as the cutoff because, he suggested, executive actions Adams took after that were tainted.”
Said Mandani: “We have to reckon with why so many New Yorkers have turned away from politics over the last few months, the last few years, the last few decades, and that was a date that marked a moment when many New Yorkers decided that politics held nothing for them.”
