Schumer, Nadler Endorse BDS-Supporting Mamdani in NYC Mayoral Primary
Zohran Mamdani's unexpected victory in the 2025 Democratic mayoral primary in New York City has elicited mixed reactions, particularly among Jewish leaders and communities. While Mamdani is a supporter of the Palestinian-led Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions (BDS) movement and has pledged not to visit Israel if elected, prominent Jewish Democratic politicians such as Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and Representative Jerry Nadler swiftly endorsed his candidacy, emphasizing the need for change and unity against bigotry. Nadler highlighted Mamdani as a potential ally against Donald Trump's policies and praised his commitment to fighting antisemitism, despite concerns from parts of the Jewish community. Other officials like State Senator Brad Hoylman-Sigal also endorsed Mamdani, applauding his ability to energize diverse communities and expressing support for a more inclusive New York City. However, significant unease remains among Jewish institutions and leaders, who worry about Mamdani's stance on Israel and call on him to prioritize the safety and security of all New Yorkers. Despite these tensions, the UJA-Federation of New York affirmed its resilience and commitment to the community and Israel, signaling a cautious willingness to engage with Mamdani if he becomes mayor.
