Potholes and progress: Mamdani reflects on 100 days as New York’s mayor

What Happened

Zohran Mamdani, New York's first Muslim mayor, has completed 100 days in office. He secured $1.2 billion for universal childcare, adding 2,000 daycare seats starting in lower-income neighborhoods. The city filled 100,000 potholes by April. A new cost-of-living tool revealed 62 percent of New Yorkers earn insufficient income for essential expenses. Mamdani faced criticism from some Democrats during his campaign but has achieved early policy victories.
