Mamdani Won on Housing. Will Democrats Follow His Lead?

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani swept into office with a campaign focused on costs and a promise to freeze rents on rent-regulated apartments. That pledge unnerved landlords who own buildings with expensive debt and face higher costs for insurance, utilities and other expenses. Ahead of primary elections this Tuesday, Mamdani has endorsed like-minded candidates with similarly progressive ideas for how to address the cost of housing. That has sometimes put them and Mamdani at odds with House Democratic leader Hakeem Jeffries on an issue they all hope will resonate with voters in November.  Host Sabrina Siddiqui speaks with Mayor Mamdani and explains how tenants and landlords are viewing his policy proposals in The Cost-of-Living Election, Part 4.
