The United Federation of Teachers has endorsed mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani following his democratic primary victory. UFT President Michael Mulgrew stated the need for improved safety and affordability for working and middle-class families, emphasizing better pay and benefits for educators and nurses. Mamdani’s plans for New York City schools include limiting mayoral control and encouraging partnerships for school governance. He advocates for universal childcare to support families in the city amid rising childcare costs, seeking ways to retain families in New York City.
Mamdani has proposed favored school policy changes, including limiting mayoral control in schools and advocating for a system that would lean on partnerships to govern roughly 911,000 students and 1,600 schools.
The best way to keep families in New York City is to make it cheaper to raise one here. That's why, since the beginning of this campaign, I've championed universal childcare.
