Jan. 1, 2026, New York City, New York, USA: Immigrants swear in Public Advocate Jumaane D. Williams, with his wife India Sneed and family looking on, during a ceremony at City Hall. Zohran Mamdani was later sworn in as the 112th Mayor of New York City at City Hall. Mamdani is the city's first Muslim mayor, its first of South Asian descent and the first to be born in Africa. At 34, he is also the city's youngest mayor since the late 19th century.
