Andrew Cuomo is demanding that his opponent in New York City's mayoral race, Zohran Mamdani, vacate his rent stabilized apartment, while pushing a longshot proposal that would bar other middle-class renters from accessing much of the city’s housing.

Mayoral candidate Andrew M. Cuomo is criticizing front-runner Zohran Mamdani for living in a one-bedroom rent-stabilized apartment for $2,300 a month, calling on him "to move out immediately and give your affordable housing back to an unhoused family."

Personal attacks aside, Cuomo rightly notes that there are no income restrictions on the majority of New York City's rent-stabilized units.
