I checked: Zohran Mamdani is a member of the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) and has been endorsed by NYC-DSA.
This checks out, too: The DSA explicitly supports “transgender rights” and access to “gender-affirming health care,” including for minors.
In official statements, DSA opposes legislative efforts to block transgender youth from receiving medical care and affirms “unrestricted access to reproductive, gender transition and mental/behavioral healthcare” for “LGBTQIA+ people.”
To be clear: this means DSA supports allowing minors to access forms of gender-affirming treatment such as puberty blockers, hormones, and surgeries for children, and rejects political attempts to restrict that “care.”
Will journalists question Mamdani about this? Will New Yorkers help their fellow residents understand the gravity of the situation?
Should the largest city in America and a hub of the world economy be subjected to a politician whose views are beyond the pale of human decency?
How did New York City get here less than a quarter-century after 9/11?
