JVP Action launches “Jews for Zohran”

VICTORY.
“I’ve been so proud to have the support of my friends at Jewish Voice for Peace Action since day one of this campaign. JVP Action has been mobilizing mass support to knock doors across this city, and they’re showing that every New Yorker can unite around our agenda of affordability and safety. This campaign is about creating a NYC for all and demonstrating a politics of consistency. JVP Action is a core part of this fight and the work ahead.”
—NYC Mayor-Elect Zohran Mamdani
Together, we showed loudly and clearly that New York Jews support Zohran, not in spite of, but because of his support for Palestinian rights and commitment to ending U.S. complicity in Israel’s apartheid and genocide. We fought back against the racist and Islamophobic smear campaigns run by Andrew Cuomo and his Trump-supporting billionaire backers.
And we proved that Palestinian rights are popular.
