New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani has filed a lawsuit to stop a law passed by the New York City Council granting one-time $10,000 bonuses to low-paid school aides, known as paraprofessionals. The move marks a surprising break with the United Federation of Teachers (UFT), which endorsed Mamdani in last year’s mayoral election and had his support for the bonuses during the campaign.

      Eh. I think there’s a decent case here that NYC Democrats actually did this to hurt collective bargaining across the whole city. This particular action could be Mamdani leaning into the punch.

      Not saying I disagree with your characterization of him, but this action might be justified within the context of maintaining the power needed to protect all workers
