FROM THE DESK OF REP. ELISE STEFANIK | With every passing day, the revelations about Zohran Mamdani – the Democrat nominee for mayor of New York City – get even worse. | As if being an antisemite, a communist, and a jihadi weren’t disqualifying enough, recently leaked audio from 2020 shows the horrifying extent of his defund-the-police agenda. | New York Post: “Zohran Mamdani said NYPD shouldn’t respond to domestic violence calls in resurfaced podcast interview” | He also argued it was "inappropriate" for police to handle a situation involving a homeless person on a subway train. | This dangerous rhetoric is already having an impact. Recently, more than 170 NYPD officers filed retirement papers in a single day! | I’ll just come right out and say it because no one else will … | Mamdani and Hochul’s sanctuary city policies, failed bail reform, and defund-the-police insanity have already KILLED New Yorkers – and if we don’t FIRE Hochul and FLIP New York, their agenda will only get more extreme and put many more innocent lives in danger. | I’m sick and tired of Democrats ignoring the victims of violent crime and pretending like there are no consequences to their radical defund-the-police agenda! | But sharp words and harsh condemnations aren’t enough. We need to take action. | That is why, after hearing Mamdani utter these horrifying thoughts about the police not responding to domestic violence calls, I set a brand-new $1,000,000 goal for my committee to help SAVE New York and authorized a 500% MATCH to help us reach it as quickly as possible. | I’ve done what I can. Now, I’m counting on you, John. | To be perfectly blunt: 2026 is our one FINAL chance to SAVE New York before it’s too late. | Rep.
