New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani has revoked several executive orders signed by his predecessor Eric Adams after Adams was indicted in 2024. The отменed orders expanded the city’s definition of antisemitism and barred agencies from boycotting or divesting from Israel. Mamdani signed the changes hours after his swearing in. He said new mayors can cancel or change old directives. He also issued new orders on housing. His team must study ways to speed up building and list city land that can be used for homes by summer. Some Jewish groups criticised the move, while civil rights groups supported it. (PC: CNN)
