一句话看懂
NYC Mayor Mamdani launched the Office of Worker Power on Labor Day. It helps workers organize and connect with unions, focusing on immigrants.
背景
New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani, a democratic socialist, signed an executive order on Labor Day (September 7, 2026) to create the Mayor's Office of Worker Power (MOWP), the first such office in the nation. The office aims to use City Hall resources to help workers, especially immigrants and undocumented workers, understand their rights, organize, and connect with unions and worker centers. This initiative comes amid rising inequality and a desire to give workers more power in the workplace.
