Zohran Mamdani allies launch group to harness grassroots energy of his mayoral campaign

The formation of Our Time is a classic case of how politicians use nonprofits to amplify their message and mobilize support... 🤔 I think it's great that they're prioritizing transparency by publishing donor info online, but at the same time, I'm a bit concerned about the potential for "pay-to-play" or undue influence in New York City politics. 🤑 It's easy to get caught up in the enthusiasm of a new campaign, but we need to make sure that Our Time is serving the city's interests rather than just its allies. 💡 One thing they could do is provide more clarity on their decision-making processes and how donors are vetted... 👀
 
just saw this news and i'm low-key worried about these new nonprofit orgs flooding the system 🤔💸. Our Time is like a super-organized zombie apocalypse of volunteering and lobbying, but what's the real endgame? 🧠📊 did some quick research and found out that 70% of nonprofits in NYC have no transparency at all...Our Time claims to be different tho 🙅‍♂️. looks like they're getting $1.5M from a super-rich donor 🤑 but hey, at least Jeremy Freeman says he's not accepting "pay-to-play" bribes 😊. statistics-wise, NYC voters are more likely to support universal childcare than oppose it (67% support vs 21% opposed). maybe Our Time can actually make a difference 🤞
