And to lead this work, I am proud to announce that Tascha Van Auken will serve as commissioner.\u201d \u201cAs commissioner, my commitment is simple and serious: to help build a government that works for all New Yorkers, invites them in and treats their participation as consequential. A government that doesn\u2019t just ask for input but acts on it, and one that helps New Yorkers see themselves not as spectators, but as co-creators of our shared future.\u201d \u201cToday, I am also announcing that Ali Najmi will serve as chair of the Mayor\u2019s Advisory Committee on the Judiciary. Under Ali\u2019s leadership, this committee will take on a more public and engaged role, reaching beyond City Hall to the wider legal community, demystifying the judicial selection process, expanding who participates in shaping our courts, and ensuring that our city\u2019s judicial system applies the rule of law universally and does so without favor.\u201d \u201cThis committee will reach out to every nook and cranny of this legal community to encourage that we have the best, most robust, diverse applicant pool for the judiciary.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"css-hple31\">Mayor Zohran Mamdani announced two appointments at Grand Army Plaza in Brooklyn on his second day as mayor of New York City, including the creation of an Office of Mass Engagement.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>January 2, 2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>new video loaded: Mamdani Creates Office of Mass Engagement transcript Back transcript Mamdani Creates Office of Mass Engagement Mayor Zohran Mamdani announced two appointments at Grand Army Plaza in Brooklyn on his second day as mayor of New York City, including the creation of an Office of Mass Engagement. \u201cWith the signing of this executive<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":40088,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[56],"tags":[4064,3351,6193,1472,1008],"class_list":{"0":"post-40087","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-crime-justice","8":"tag-creates","9":"tag-engagement","10":"tag-mamdani","11":"tag-mass","12":"tag-office"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/naijaglobalnews.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/40087","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/naijaglobalnews.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/naijaglobalnews.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/naijaglobalnews.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/naijaglobalnews.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=40087"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/naijaglobalnews.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/40087\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/naijaglobalnews.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/40088"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/naijaglobalnews.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=40087"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/naijaglobalnews.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=40087"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/naijaglobalnews.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=40087"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
