New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani continues to make waves with his radical agenda. This time he’s targeting charter schools, producing some strong reactions from parents and residents.
In an exclusive report by The New York Post, the newspaper wrote that Mamdani “plans to declare war on charter schools if he’s elected mayor,” according to a survey he answered June before the Democratic primary.
The state assemblyman said he would “fight efforts to open more charters, which largely educate minority, working-class students, and even opposed the schools sharing space in city-owned buildings,” the article read.
“I oppose efforts by the state to mandate an expansion of charter school operations in New York City,” he said in a Staten Island Advance questionnaire.
Mother Arlene Rosado, who has a son in 10th grade at the “Nuasin Next Generation” K-12 charter school in the Bronx, said Mamdani doesn’t know what he’s talking about.
“I don’t understand why Mamdani would be hostile to charter schools,” she said. “I think he’s very misinformed.”

🤣 Oh, just the schools have them cranked up?
Your children must be brainwashed
They’ll still vote for him.
Worse than this, Mamdani may put Jamaal Bowman in charge of NYC schools. You remember Bowman. He was the male Squad member who got booted in his primary. He’s a true psychopath.
Stupid should hurt.
Yeah let’s make smart kids whose parents read them books at night go to school with kids whose parents take them on drug deals at night.
There can be no interruption of the grooming and Marxist indoctrination of schoolchildren.
Hey....you voted for him.
Plank 10.
Yes
BTW, socialists don't believe the gov't should "seize all means of production" -- MANDUMMY DOES, therefore he is a COMMUNIST 100%.
#17 of 45 Goals
Get control of the schools. Use them as transmission belts for SOCIALISM and current Communist propaganda. Soften the curriculum. Get control of the TEACHER associations. Put the party line in textbooks. Gain control of all student newspapers. Use student riots...
Isn’t he the one who pulled the fire alarm in the House of Representatives to forestall voting on certain legislation?
If Mamadami becomes Mayor of NYC, students attending public schools will all be wearing Islamic garb.
Does Mamdani have a specific position on homeschooling?
once again, I don’t care. You allow him to be elected, you get what you get.
Angry backlash from parents that will still vote for the prick. Damned idiots
Pandering to the teachers’ unions.
Isn't he the guy who pulled the fire alarm to delay a vote in Congress?
