New York City Mayor-Elect Zohran Mamdani (D) has Fired 179 City Employees, many of them Political Appointees by current Mayor Eric Adams (D).
"Every administration can choose their own team. I think it's surprising that so many people were not given the opportunity to fight for their jobs. That's what's surprising," Deputy Mayor Fabien Levy (D) said.
Mamdani's Transition Team is a Diverse Group of New Yorkers Headed by Five Women, including Adams' Own former Deputy Mayor Maria Torres-Springer (D). And His Police Commissioner, Jessica Tisch (D) will continue to Run the NYPD.
This is "standard practice for a mayoral transition," said His Spokesperson, "Which includes new staff in key roles to ensure they can deliver effectively on their agenda. Look, every mayor gets to choose who they bring into their administration," Levy said.
Tonight, Levy says $xperienced Staff Deserved to be Considered. "They've been in these positions for years. They should have been given that opportunity. They were not given that opportunity," Levy said.
Levy says "60% are Women and Minorities. The Transition is a Sharp Political Shift. The Extent of the House cleaning here Still not clear."
