Stewart-Cousins eyes ‘progressive taxation’ push

With help from Molly Reinmann HAPPY TUESDAY. This is Nick Reisman in Albany. Massive Democratic majorities are returning to Albany in January, giving a boost to the tax-the-rich forces. I’ve got new reporting on that dynamic. Plus my colleague has the details on a New York City Council hearing next month on student sexual assault. Have news tips or just want to share what’s on your mind? Reach me at nreisman@politico.com . Driving The Day A MASSIVE MAJORITY : Legislative Democrats will come roaring back to Albany next year with turbocharged majorities in the state Senate and Assembly. They intend to use that refreshed mandate to major effect — especially when it comes to pursuing what Senate Majority Leader Andrea Stewart-Cousins called “progressive taxation.” “We’ve always looked at the ability of those with extraordinary wealth to be able to pay more, do more,” she told Playbook in an interview Monday. “That’s been something that our conference has talked about.” What those proposals will look like won’t be clear for months.

Mamdani distances himself from DSA’s wildest platforms during rapid-fire Fox News questioning

Mayor Zohran Mamdani once again distanced himself from some of the wildest policies espoused by leaders of the Democratic Socialists of America . Hizzoner downplayed the possibility of him getting booted out of the lefty group while claiming there’s mainstream public support to abolish Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). “The thing that has been offered as a part of a litany of policy platforms that I would reject is, after last night, why would we abolish the Senate?” Mamdani told “Fox News Sunday” in a pre-taped interview. “I think what we’re seeing is that Americans across this country are facing a cost-of-living crisis,” he added. “Americans are tired of waiting. They are tired of being told that their needs are unrealistic by the very politicians who have been bought by the wealthiest people in the country.” New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani once again distanced himself from key tenets of the DSA platform.
