5:59Now PlayingZohran Mamdani’s plan to open government-run grocery stores would waste taxpayer money solving a problem NYC doesn’t have.
---
New York City Mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani says City Hall needs to get into the grocery business because New Yorkers are being "priced out" of private supermarkets. If elected, Mamdani says he'll spend $60 million on opening one government-run grocery store in each of the five boroughs that would deliver healthier produce at lower prices. Kennedy went to the Bronx to figure out if New Yorkers actually want this. Spoiler alert: Many New Yorkers would rather their money be spent on other, more pressing, issues.
