We are looking for an operator to help run NYC Groceries, which will offer a core basket of goods at 30 percent below market prices. @mayor.nyc.gov’s administration has shown since January that government can and should make life better in tangible ways.

The cost of groceries has become one of the defining challenges of the affordability crisis. That's why our municipal grocery stores will offer a 30% discount on the grocery staples New Yorkers depend on — from meat to produce to dairy.
Uber Eats and DoorDash hid tip buttons and set default tips below 10%. As a result, tips for delivery workers fell 79%. In January, we made these corporations change their apps — and in the past six months, we've put $104 million back in delivery workers' pockets. This is only the beginning.
At our municipal grocery stores, New Yorkers will get a 30% discount on eggs, milk, chicken, produce and other everyday essentials. In the wealthiest city in the richest country in the world, no one should have to wonder how they’ll afford the food they need to feed themselves or their families.
NYC’s OPEN for Small Business: over 50 changes to ease the burden of fines & fees,shredding duplicative requirements & paperwork, making @nycsmallbiz.bsky.social’s BEST program even better, and a new Executive Order directing continuous improvements.
We thank the City of New York, @mayor.nyc.gov @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social, @juliesulabor.bsky.social, and the entire administration for standing with us.
CCHR Comm’r Christine Clarke and Deputy Mayor Julie Su visited The Tenement Museum to reaffirm a powerful message: your immigration status should never determine whether you have access to housing. If you believe you’ve experienced housing discrimination, call 311 or visit NYC.gov/HumanRights.
With more hot days in NYC, and no state or federal standard to keep workers safe, a reminder that @mayor.nyc.gov has your back. Employers with a heat safety plan make a huge difference.
No federal heat standard? NYC workers are building their own safety net.
As summer temperatures climb, city agencies and community groups are partnering to protect workers against extreme heat.

World Cup matches are taking a breather, but tomorrow we’re back in action. The semifinals are underway, and with just 6 days left in the tournament, now’s the time to plan where you’ll watch, eat, celebrate, and soak up the rest of the beautiful game.
If it’s easy to sign up with one click, it should be just as easy to cancel with one click. That’s why New York City is becoming the first city in the nation to implement a Click-to-Cancel Rule.
It should be as easy to cancel a subscription as it is to sign up for one. The advertised price should be the price you pay. New Yorkers are losing up to $162 million a year & countless hours of precious time at the hands of companies who count on people not to fight back. That stops now.
Who loves America more than those who have sacrificed to make it free? Happy Fourth of July.

Extreme heat kills more Americans every year than hurricanes, floods, and tornadoes combined. Workers can’t stop for water when they have a quota to hit. They can’t step into the shade, much less get to a cooling center, when they’re on the clock.
High temps predicted this week. As NYC prepares for extreme heat, @mayor.nyc.gov is protecting workers by using all the powers the city has.

Making history by learning from history. Professor Daniel Wortel-London has studied 150 years of economic development in NYC and sat down with us to talk about all the tools we have to build a strong economy for all if we’re imaginative enough to use them.
It's the dream of every historian to help those making history. Today I presented on the past, present, and future of economic policy in NYC to the Deputy Mayor of Economic Justice @juliesulabor.bsky.social, @waleedshahid.bsky.social, and other stars from the Zohran administration. :)
This week, we were proud to witness the @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social administration issue an Executive Order that directs development of new #heatsafety protections for the 1.4 million New Yorkers who work outdoors ☀️ @juliesulabor.bsky.social
On Juneteenth, we honor the generations of Black New Yorkers whose struggle and determination brought us closer to justice. At Foley Square, Lorenzo Pace's sculpture stands as a powerful tribute to that legacy.

We're bringing the Knicks Championship Parade to the people — no matter where you are. Watch live at nyc.gov/knicks or on the NYC Mayor's Office YouTube, X, and Facebook at 10AM EST tomorrow. Stick around for the City Hall Ceremony following the parade.
As we continue working to address the affordability crisis that has pushed 200,000 Black New Yorkers to leave our city over the last 20 years, it is critical that we bring the struggles of every New Yorker to the heart and solutions of our politics.
@mayor.nyc.gov never forgets the workers who make all things possible.

Thank you to the NYC Mayor for visiting the Deliverista Hub and hearing directly from delivery workers. Thank you for making this space possible and for recognizing that worker dignity must be at the center of city policy. 🚲✊🏽❤️
