Mayor Zohran Mamdani is taking measures to hear from the people a step further.
The NYC Mayor is getting ready to launch his own Twitch streaming channel called “Talk with the People.” Through the channel, the mayor will respond to questions that are put in the chat.
In a statement, Mayor Mamdani said, “With the launch of ‘Talk with the People, ‘ we’re bringing City Hall to the platforms where New Yorkers already are — speaking directly with the people.”
He continued, “By launching the country’s first recurring cross-platform stream hosted by an elected official, where I’ll answer New Yorkers’ questions live on Twitch, we’re opening up a direct line of conversation between our government and the people, especially younger generations who’ve been ignored for too long.”
The series will also stream live on YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, and Bluesky. The stream will launch on Thursday, May 21st at 4 pm. Make sure you are tuned and bring your questions.
