New York City’s mayor has publicly denounced Senator Tuberville’s recent anti-Muslim social media activity, calling it outright discrimination.
Mayor Zohran Mamdani made his remarks during an iftar gathering on Thursday evening, an event organized to mark the end of the daily fast observed during the holy month of Ramadan. The dinner took place at the Museum of the City of New York on March 12.
During his address to city employees and community members, Mamdani characterized the senator’s online statements targeting Muslims as acts of “bigotry” and “hatred.”
The mayor’s sharp criticism comes amid ongoing national discussions about religious tolerance and the treatment of Muslim Americans in political discourse.
