Mamdani promises to release disputed NYC public school contracts to City Council ‘in the coming weeks’ amid subpoena threat

Mayor Zohran Mamdani said Tuesday that the City Council will receive hundreds of NYC public school contracts it has sought for months “in the coming weeks,” offering a public timeframe in an escalating transparency dispute between lawmakers and the Department of Education (DOE).

“The City Council will have these contracts in the coming weeks,” Mamdani said when asked about Council Speaker Julie Menin’s threat to subpoena the records.
