Gila Isaacson JFeed, June 10, 2025 “For some Jewish voters, Mamdani’s criticism of Israel, including his support for the “Not on Our Dime” bill to prohibit nonprofits from funding Israeli settlement activity, is less a dealbreaker than a point of debate.” In the bustling, diverse landscape of New York City’s 2025 mayoral race, Zohran Mamdani, a 33-year-old […]
