Mamdani Vetoes NYC Bill On Anti-Semitism

Anyone surprised? How about all the Jews in NYC who voted for this radical Islamist?

Mamdani in the hot seat after first veto derails bipartisan effort to combat antisemitism: ‘Disappointed’

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani is sparking backlash after using his first veto to derail a bipartisan bill aimed at combating antisemitism by expanding protest security safeguards for places of education.

“This could impact workers protesting ICE or college students demanding their school divest from fossil fuels or demonstrating in support of Palestinian rights,” Mamdani said in a statement Friday.

“It is a piece of legislation that has alarmed much of the labor movement, reproductive rights groups and immigration advocates, among others, across this city.”

New York’s former Democratic Gov. Andrew Cuomo, who ran as an independent against Mamdani in the mayoral race last year, slammed Mamdani’s decision on X, saying he “chose the whims of his radical, extreme-left DSA base over the safety of students and Jewish New Yorkers at a time of rising antisemitism.”

“Instead of governing for all NYers, Mamdani has repealed the very definition of antisemitism from the city’s books, changed how antisemitic crimes are counted and now vetoed these commonsense security measures when they are needed most,” Cuomo continued.

You voted for this, New Yorkers. Are you happy? How about the Jews? It’s not like you weren’t warned about him being a Jew hater.

The bill, Int. 175-B, requires New York law enforcement to develop a plan to contain the risk of physical obstruction, physical injury, intimidation and interference at educational facilities while still allowing for freedom of assembly and First-Amendment events. The plan would then apply to “any building, structure, or place where educational programming takes place.” (snip)

“According to the NYPD, antisemitic incidents accounted for 57% of reported hate crimes in 2025, although only approximately 10% of New York City residents are Jewish. Jewish New Yorkers were the targets of hate crimes more than all other groups combined.”

Common sense legislation, but, of course, NYC has been taken over by the unhinged wackos who take the side of radical Islamic terrorist groups to the point of wanting Jews gone. These are your people, Democrats: do you support this? They aren’t far far fringe, they are the voting base. Do you support them?
