As he seeks to boost his campaign for New York City mayor, Andrew Cuomo is proposing an overhaul to New York City’s rent laws and escalating his attacks on the frontrunner, Zohran Mamdani.

Mayoral candidate Andrew M. Cuomo is criticizing front-runner Zohran Mamdani for living in a one-bedroom rent-stabilized apartment for $2,300 a month, calling on him "to move out immediately and give your affordable housing back to an unhoused family."

Former Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo’s proposal is a dig at Zohran Mamdani, his main opponent in the mayor’s race, but it could upend the housing search for middle-income New Yorkers.
