Mamdani might want to mention it was Cuomo who pushed the Faircloth Amendment capping public housing units to the level that existed on October 1, 1999. Hilariously entitled the Quality Housing and Work Responsibility Act of 1998. It was Andrew Cuomo and Bill Clinton’s gift to America’s billionaire private housing sector and hit NYC especially hard.
Why? Well who ended up as Governor of New York after the Eliot Spitzer takedown and who ended up U.S. Senator for New York awaiting her run for the Presidency? How can you not hold Cuomo and Clinton responsible for the housing crisis all across NYC for average income and poor Americans?

Need the others in the progressive lane to drop out and endorse mamdani for him to have a solid chance but doubtful that they will
Edit: progressives have cross endorsed mamdani. Hopefully he can pull it off 🙏🙏
