Mamdani moves to sideline NYC police with new safety office under sweeping overhaul
Fox News ^ | Mar. 20, 2026 | Alexandra Koch

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani announced on Thursday he will sign an executive order to create the Office of Community Safety (OCS), a step toward his vision of public safety that prioritizes support and prevention rather than policing and penalization.

The office, housed within the mayor’s office, will oversee multiple existing public safety programs and signify a major step in building out Mamdani's $1.1 billion Department of Community Safety.

The announcement comes after Mamdani pledged to revise the city's police response in non-criminal emergencies, including mental health crises.

New Yorkers are getting just what they voted for in this IslamoCommunist. Go bck to the dys of early Bolhevik rule in Russia when the Bolsheviks tried the same thing with disastrous conseuqences for ordinary Russians. Now look for the pillaged middle clss to start fleeing NYC, just as the "rich" before them.

Just another way that will let criminals back onto the streets. Typical Dim - create a crisis that then “requires” more nonsense “solutions” (solutions that are not solutions) to “solve” the crisis they create.

NYC mayor and NY governor is doing their best to run off all the wealthy and productive people. It occurred to me that this is all intentional. Why else would they be doing this?

By most accounts, NYC’s Police Commissioner, Jessica Tisch, is a competent and respected individual. And I suppose she has a deep love for her city.

But at what point will she draw the line, and threaten to resign?

This new office will of course be a tax-sluice to new “non-profits” staffed by former convicts employed as “violence interrupters,” police monitors and GOTV canvassers when the time comes.

When nonsense leftist slogans meet printed money and debt.

when a few of these “safety officers” get stabbed, shot or bludgeoned to death, the whole scheme may have to be rethought.

You do not know WHAT you may walking into on a “domestic dispute” call. The police officer is at least armed.
