Mayor Mamdani Releases ‘Talk to Tenants’ Ad Featuring Two Prominent DSA Organizers

‘Organizing is working with other people towards a shared goal’

EXCERPT:

VAN AUKEN: “I've been knocking doors for almost 20 years, since 2008, for many different reasons and many different states and cities. Any New Yorker can sign up to canvass and do what we're about to do by going to organize.nyc.gov. Basically, organizing is working with other people towards a shared goal. So when tenants are organized together, they have more power and more ability to fix the problems in their lives and to get what they need in their living situations.”
WEAVER: “A tenant association in your building is really the foundation of what makes New York an affordable and livable city. And we're so excited to invite people to organize tenant associations in their buildings today.”
