Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani @mayor.nyc.gov · 22/09/2026
DoorDash has ripped off more than 260,000 NYC delivery workers. We’re making them pay $131.5 million — the largest worker settlement in City history. This is New York, where hard work pays and greed will cost you.
DoorDash messed up.
They repeatedly left more than 260,000 NYC delivery workers underpaid or paid late, causing them immense stress and financial difficulty.
That's unacceptable.
We've secured a $131.5M settlement from
DoorDash - the largest worker settlement in NYC history and largest delivery worker settlement in
American municipal history.
Every worker will be paid what they are owed, and every company will be forced to abide by the laws of this city.

ProPublica dropped the first story in a new series on corruption in Congress, and it starts with Sen. Susan Collins. A defense contractor illegally funneled $150,000 to a pro-Collins PAC. The company’s CEO later pleaded guilty to unlawful campaign contributions.

Perpetually “concerned” Susan Collins should be VERY concerned by the latest reporting from ProPublica, revealing her involvement in an alleged bribery/pay to play scheme of awarding defense contracts to a specific firm right after that company made campaign “donations." youtu.be/f2fFlCPjKnk?...

Mike Johnson is a typical Christian Nationalist, full of ahistorical disinformation about the United States. "In God We Trust" was not a motto from this nation's founding. It was added in 1956, at the height of the Cold War, as a Christian Nationalist rebuke to the Soviet Union.
