NEW YORK CITY – The New York State Republican Party today announced the launch of its “Stop Zohran” campaign and the formation of the Coalition of Common Sense to oppose the radical candidacy of Democratic candidate for New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani. The comprehensive effort includes a dedicated webpage at nygop.org/stop-zohran that details Mamdani’s extreme positions and dangerous policy agenda.
“Zohran Mamdani represents everything that’s wrong with today’s Democratic Party: socialist economics, anti-police extremism, and divisive rhetoric that threatens the fabric of our city,” said New York State Republican Party Chairman Ed Cox. “His openly socialist agenda would devastate New York’s economy, compromise public safety and drive more families and businesses out of our city. The Coalition of Common Sense brings together New Yorkers from all backgrounds who believe in safe streets, strong schools, economic opportunity and basic decency – values that Mamdani’s candidacy directly threatens.”
The Stop Zohran page highlights Mamdani’s own words and policy positions, including his stated goal to “seize the means of production,” his declaration that “capitalism is theft,” and his commitment to defund the NYPD. The page also exposes his anti-Israel extremism, including his support for the BDS movement and his refusal to condemn calls to “globalize the intifada.”
Cox continued:
“The Coalition of Common Sense welcomes New Yorkers from all political backgrounds who share concerns about Mamdani’s extreme agenda and its potential impact on public safety, economic prosperity and community cohesion in New York City.”
