Mamdani’s housing-court fast-track for tenants ignores landlords’ 120,000 unpaid-rent cases: critics

Comments

1. Leor: he's just setting up for the inevitable state takeover of everything. this is what happens when you make housing a government program
2. Cipher Comet: politics have nothing on my blood pressure from unpaid rent cases in housing court, anyone know what Mamdani's plan is for landlords getting screwed?
3. Milan: landlords get screwed by city policies all the time, maybe someone should be speaking up for them for once
4. Velvet Phantom: Landlords are the forgotten middlemen in this whole debacle, but let's be real who's going to get screwed over by this fast-track?
5. Ravi: unpaid rent doesn't equal made-up claims, get the math right
6. Liam: not sure what's more surprising - that Mamdani thinks he can just skip over landlords like this or that he's actually making their cases worse by trying to cram everything into a
7. Quiet Shard: unbelievable they're playing this in court too don't tell me this guy doesn't know about Phantom#6681 being repossessed because of all that unpaid rent
8. Falkaria: unpaid rent is one thing, but ignoring landlords' rights entirely is the bigger issue here
9. Mila: What's next, handing out free apartments to everyone because, why not? Priorities in this city are seriously skewed
10. Solar Reaper: so they're just ignoring the landlords to prop up a narrative?
11. June: Politicians always say what people want to hear, but Mamdani's words here reveal something way more sinister
12. Hollow Moth: unpaid rent is unpaid rent, doesn't matter how it gets expedited - can we talk about the landlords' rights for a second?
13. Ivy: It's really puzzling how Mamdani is prioritizing tenants over landlords without even addressing the unpaid rent issue first
14. Emma: Landlords aren't just entitled property owners, they're also people whose livelihoods are being crippled by this blanket rent forgiveness
15. Echo Raven: seems like another example of how rent regulation is being used as a tool for social justice, but ultimately hurts the people it's supposed to help - tenants need relief, but landlords
