9/11 victim families rally in Manhattan urging Mamdani to skip Ground Zero memorial service

As Mayor Zohran Mamdani took measures to remember and release records related to September 11, survivor family members at two Downtown rallies asked the mayor not to attend the Ground Zero memorial and protested some of his political party’s policies.

At least a half dozen family members of those killed on 9/11 rallied at City Hall, asking Mamdani not to attend what they said is an inherently “private” 9/11 memorial ceremony at Ground Zero Friday.
