Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani: Good morning, everyone. It is always a great day to be back in the BX. And it is an honor to gather with so many advocates, activists, canvassers and organizers who made today possible. I want to begin with a few acknowledgments of leaders that we have here from our administration. We have our Commissioner Tascha Van Auken [from] the [Mayor’s] Office of Mass Engagement. We have our director of the Mayor's Office to Protect Tenants Cea Weaver. We have our Corporations Counsel Steven Banks. And we also have the borough president of the Bronx here with us, Vanessa Gibson. And then we also have Council Member Althea Stevens, in whose district we are in today. And last but not least, we have Carmen Gruillion and the tenant organizers with CASA.
Now, almost exactly a year and a half ago, on October 23, 2024, we launched a campaign that conventional wisdom suggested would not work. And yet, 104,000 people showed up. One hundred and four thousand people knocked on more than 3 million doors. One hundred and four thousand people chose to view politics not as something that is done to them but something they do. One hundred and four thousand people went to work to win a more affordable city. And they did it in New York City, where you will always hear from everyone all the time.
Now on our second day in office, we kept up this momentum with the creation of New York City's first-ever Office of Mass Engagement, because the political process does not, cannot and must not end just on Election Day. We want the voices of working-class New Yorkers to be the driving forces behind the decisions that shape their lives.
That is why we are here to announce that the Office of Mass Engagement is launching a powerful initiative called Organize NYC to keep New Yorkers involved in the work of shaping the future of our city. Organize NYC will begin its work with a push to make sure that New Yorkers' voices are heard at the Rent Guidelines Board hearings this June. The timing of this launch, frankly, could not be more important. This is a consequential decision that is coming up. In June, the Rent Guidelines Board will decide whether or not the rent will go up for more than 2 million New Yorkers who live in rent-stabilized homes. The board has heard from experts. Now, there are a number of hearings across many of our boroughs where they will need to hear from you.
Over the coming months, the board will be holding public hearings across the city for tenants and owners to testify directly about how a rent adjustment would affect them. To put it into context, this is a decision that will impact more than 2 million New Yorkers. Last year, only 400 New Yorkers testified at these hearings. That is 0.02 percent at best. If we want New Yorkers to believe in these processes, we must make it as easy as possible for them to be a part of these processes. And that is why we need to get the word out to as many New Yorkers as we can. And that is why, just a few minutes ago, I was walking the halls right here of 760 Grand Concourse and knocking on doors to myself.
And the reason that we were knocking on those doors in this very building is because we know that behind every closed door is a New Yorker who has a story to tell. I spoke to a tenant who had lived here for decades. I spoke to another tenant who only spoke Spanish and through an interpreter, we were able to gauge that, yes, this was a rent-stabilized unit. Yes, this decision would impact her life. Yes, it has done so in the past. This is not about telling New Yorkers what they should say. This is about ensuring that everyday New Yorkers are as involved in the processes as the impact that these processes will have on their day-to-day lives.
To all the season canvassers who have been with us from day one, the work is far from over. There are more New Yorkers to talk to in this city. And for everyone who wants to get involved but doesn't know where to start, we will teach you how. You can join one of our upcoming civic education events to learn more about the ins and outs of organizing, or you can dive straight in by going to organize.nyc.gov to sign up for a canvassing shift yourself.
Our administration did not get to City Hall alone, and we do not intend to govern alone. So let us get out there and knock on some doors. Now with that being said, I want to pass it over to the commissioner of the Office of Mass Engagement herself, Tascha Van Auken.
Commissioner Tascha Van Auken, Mayor’s Office of Mass Engagement: Good morning. Hello everyone. I am thrilled to be here at 760 Grand Concourse to mark the launch of Organize NYC. All too often, civic life in this city can feel opaque and hard to navigate, separating New Yorkers from the decisions that shape their lives. This administration is setting out to change that, to ensure that New Yorkers are not passive observers of City Hall but actively guiding the city that we all live in. We saw what that kind of engagement can look like a year ago when a people-powered movement helped elect Mayor Mamdani. More than a hundred thousand New Yorkers spent their evenings and weekends knocking on doors, making phone calls and speaking with neighbors, friends and family about the future of our city. It was a movement that created a real sense of human connection, lifting a democratic socialist from less than 1 percent in the polls to be mayor of the largest city in the country. But we were always very clear that was only the beginning.
On the second day of his administration, Mayor Mamdani signed an executive order creating the Office of Mass Engagement, with a mission to make New Yorkers active participants in our city's democracy. Today we are building on that vision. We are launching the first initiative under Organize NYC, a campaign to mobilize New Yorkers to testify ahead of the Rent Guidelines Board hearings. In June, the Rent Guidelines Board will hold public hearings to hear directly from New Yorkers, hearings that will inform their vote on whether rents for stabilized units will increase or remain the same. That decision will impact more than 2 million New Yorkers. And yet, as the mayor said last year, only around 400 people testified. This campaign will aim to expand and strengthen that participation because we know that government is made stronger, more representative and more democratic when New Yorkers are partners in governance.
Too often people don't know about the opportunities they have to make their voices heard or they don't know how to take part. We are not advocating for any specific outcome or position. The goal of this campaign is to break down barriers and cut through the complexity that has kept New Yorkers at arm's length from the decisions that affect their lives the most. I will end with this. I've always been inspired by the power of people to make real changes through organization and shared purpose.
The movement that brought us here continues to inspire me and reminds me of what's possible. There is immense power in thinking, building and imagining what is possible for the future of our city together. There is immense power in creating an organized New York City. I look forward to the work ahead. Thank you, Mr. Mayor. Thank you all for joining.
Mayor Mamdani: Now we're going to hear from the director of the Mayor's Office to Protect Tenants, Cea Weaver.
Director Cea Weaver, Mayor’s Office to Protect Tenants: Hi, everybody. We know that when New Yorkers get organized, whether it's in their building or to come down to City Hall to testify or to testimony in their neighborhoods, that repairs come faster, our enforcement is stronger and that the housing policies that we shape are sharper. We know that because of a deep faith that we have in New Yorkers, that more people participating in government will lead to stronger and better results. I'm so thrilled today to join with Commissioner Van Auken, and, of course, the mayor, to participate in the very first Office of Mass Engagement campaign to drive participation in New York's most consequential Rent Guidelines Board campaign.
This is really just the foundation of what we can do together. We know that organized working-class people are the ones who drive our city forward, and I'm very proud to stand with the amazing tenants of 760 Grand Concourse who came together, formed a tenant association and secured repairs in this very building. That's just one example of what we can do together, whether it's in your building lobby or whether it's testifying at the Rent Guidelines Board. Organized people are what makes New York possible and I'm very proud to be here today. Thank you, everyone.
Mayor Mamdani: And we know there are more repairs to be won. We got to get the button of the sixth floor working on that elevator. I'm going to pass it over now to our Borough President Vanessa Gibson.
Bronx Borough President Vanessa Gibson: Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. First, let me thank our mayor for being here in the Bronx right here at 760. To all of the residents of 760, thank you. Thank you for allowing us to be in your home and in your space today. This is a prime example of what happens when residents organize and understand the power that they have. The Tenants Association right here at 760 has mobilized and been very strategic about making sure that they get all the services that they are rightfully afforded to. So, thank you, everyone for being here. Thank you to Commissioner Tascha Van Auken of the Mayor's Office of Mass Engagement; to our Director Cea Weaver of the Mayor's Office to Protect Tenants; my colleague and friend and sister, Council Member Althea Stevens. Of course, I have to shout out CASA Bronx. CASA Bronx and all of the amazing organizers and tenants at CASA and Our Bronx. You have been on the front lines for years, driving our agenda and making sure that elected officials and government hold itself accountable to all of the people of this borough and this city.
This proposal of Organize NYC under the Office of Mass Engagement is an opportunity for all New Yorkers to weigh in on affordability in this city, to make sure that your voices are heard at the upcoming Rent Guidelines Board hearings happening in June. Now, I can honestly say years ago, CASA Bronx organized to make sure that RGB hearings were held in the outer boroughs, including the Bronx. And so, a large part of why we now have a Bronx hearing is because of CASA Bronx. So, I want to acknowledge that because it's important. Your work has allowed us to be here today. And so, we are encouraging residents across the borough to make sure that your voices are heard. Your voice is power. Your voice is influential and your voice matters. We know that every tenant across this borough has a story to tell, a story of survival, of resilience and strength and courage and heartache and challenge. The members of the Rent Guidelines Board need to hear that when hearings are coming to our city.
In June, we want to make sure that the location — I'm pretty certain it's going to be Hostos Community College because every year it always is — we need to pack that theater and make sure that residents across the borough are showing up. Because when you show up, you recognize the power you have and you not only represent yourself, you represent your fellow tenants and your fellow neighbors on your block and in your community. And so as borough president, I am looking forward to working with the Office of Mass Engagement, all of my Council colleagues, all of my colleagues in the Bronx and our mayor to make sure that we walk the blocks, we knock on doors, and we make sure that this is a movement because it's a movement for the people of this great city. Your voices matter. Please make sure you help us in mobilizing tenants to come out to make sure that your voices are heard during the upcoming RGB hearings in June. Thank you again, and I look forward to the organization.
Mayor Mamdani: Thank you, borough president. And now, our Council member, Althea Stephens.
Council Member Althea Stevens: Well, good morning, everybody. How y'all feeling? That's right. Today is a beautiful day and I'm so excited to be here. And I just want to say welcome back to our mayor for being in the Sweet 16, as I like to call it. It is important and I think I'm excited because this mayor has showed up in this district over and over again. And I think even coming here to launch the Office of Mass Engagement talks and shows his investment of what this looks like. And I'm just excited to have a partner who really wants to work to really ensure that people are civically engaged. And that is what's important. If you know me and you're in Sweet 16, you know that I say this all the time. I do not believe in governing alone. This is a group project where we all need to be a part of the solutions. And so, in order for me, in order for the mayor and all of us to have the power we need, we need each and every one of you to be a part of this conversation. And today is a huge step in ensuring not only you are part of this conversation, but everyone's a part of this conversation.
I would be remiss not to give a huge shout out to CASA. Is CASA in the house? Even when I was invited, I said, did you invite CASA Bronx? They said, absolutely. I said, we will not have a conversation about organizing and engaging the Bronx without CASA, because they have been on the ground working with tenants, working with community and making sure that they have the things that they need. And I wouldn't be in office if CASA was not here, because they continue to do the work. And so, thank you for the work that you do. Thank you for the tenants who show up. We appreciate the work, but this is a major step in having everyone engaged and making sure that everyone's voice is heard and everyone's voice is counted in a part of the conversation. So, thank you guys for this. And again, housing is a human right, and we need to make sure that that is something that everybody understands. So, everyone, after we leave here, being an organizer doesn't mean that you have to knock doors. You can talk to your friends.
So, make sure you're talking to your friends. You're talking to the young people. I'm going to say that one again. Make sure you're talking to the young people because they are part of the work that we need to do. They need to also be at the Rent Guidelines [Board meetings], helping us push this narrative, because guess what? They are also part of this housing crisis. They are also looking for housing. Young people are coming back from college and can't find homes. Young people are having jobs, making decent livings, but can't afford the rent. So, they need to be a part of this conversation. So, I see a lot of elders in this room. So, I need you to have conversations with your grandchildren, your nieces, your nephews, everyone. We need to make sure they're a part of this conversation and a part of the power that we are continuously building. So, thank you for showing up today.
Mayor Mamdani: Thank you so much. And now for our final speaker. Please come up.
Carmen Gruillion: Hi everyone. My name is Carmen. First, I want to thank the mayor and his team for coming to our building and listening to our concerns. Organize NYC is about making sure people like us have a voice in the decisions that shape our lives, and that starts with being seen, being heard and being part of the process. Our tenant association was formed on July 31, 2025, because we knew that we couldn't wait any longer. Tenants were dealing with serious issues, security concerns, infestations, inconsistent heat and the absence of a superintendent and porter living in our building in a [91-apartment] building. So, we organized. Since then, we have written a detailed demand letter consisting of 43 tenant complaints, which were ignored by the landlord. I took personal offense since I wrote it. And it was 37 pages, man. Anyway, we launched a 311 campaign to make the city aware of our problems. And we started working with Bronx Legal Services.
Now, we're preparing to file an HP case in Housing Court to demand long overdue repairs. The Grand Concourse was once known for the beautiful historic buildings, but over time we've seen a real decline. I grew up in this building. My mother lived here for 47 years. There are tenants who have lived here for almost as much time — 30, 40 years. It's amazing. Once you start speaking to people and you realize that this is not just an apartment to them, it's your home. So, homes that are unfortunately barely affordable. Homes that are full of neglect. And despite the fact that we appeal to landlords, often our appeals are ignored. And that's why this moment matters. Because when New Yorkers are organized, when we show up, when we testify, we have the power to shape what happens next. Not just in our building, but across the city. We are stronger when we come together and even stronger when we have support from our community, partners, our elected officials, and a city that is committed to listening. Thank you.
Question: Just yesterday, you stood in the rotunda at City Hall and said that the city doesn't have enough money to afford enough of the programs it already has. How do you justify starting another program?
Mayor Mamdani: This is a program that is funded by the money that was already allocated within the city budget. The Office of Mass Engagement is a cohering of existing city programs into one. These used to be called as you know, [the] Public Engagement Unit or Community Affairs, things of that nature, now bringing into one place. In the preliminary budget, it had the same amount of money as it did in the prior budgets.
Question: I'm just wondering what do you expect to [see] change once the committee begins and people get organized and you increase that number from 400 to maybe thousands? I mean, what would be the change tangible within the board? How would it impact their lives as far as the cost of what they pay? I mean, what is your vision?
Mayor Mamdani: I think first and foremost to say that the Rent Guidelines Board is an independent board. We value their independence. We trust them to make their own decisions. However, as they have stated out in their own processes, part of that decision making is also a testimony process where New Yorkers can come and share what these decisions — the impact that they would have on their lives. And as we shared earlier, the decision of whether or not to raise the rent impacts more than 2 million New Yorkers. To have only 400 of those New Yorkers testify, it shows that so many people are divorced from the very processes that determine their own lives. There are frankly a lot of rent-stabilized tenants who don't even know that they are rent-stabilized.
The first question I asked when we knocked on doors in this building was: “Do you know if your apartment is rent-stabilized"? One tenant said “yes.” The other said, “I think so, but I'm not sure.” We had to inform that tenant that in fact it was rent-stabilized. So, part of this comes from informing tenants of their own rights, but also this is outreach that will not be limited to tenants. It will also extend to landlords. OME members as well as volunteers will knock on doors of landlords as well as reach out to landlord advocacy groups and build a database of landlords to ensure that everyone's voice is being heard as a part of this process so that people can actually see themselves in the decisions that are governing their own lives.
Question: I'm sorry, but if I may, if they already pay so much money and they can afford it, how do you reverse that with the board? How can you reduce those increases that already have been made? Can that be done with this new movement that you're creating?
Mayor Mamdani: I think we have a board that will make their own independent decision. We have tenants who have faced rent hike after rent hike after rent hike, and what we want to ensure is that everyone whose life is impacted by this decision has the opportunity to testify, because the decision is supposed to be informed by the testimony of all those it impacts — landlords, tenants. And yet, for so many that you speak to, they don't even know that there is a process where their voice would actually be welcomed. I mean you heard just now from the borough president, the things that we that we treat as if they are a fact of life, those are things that had to be organized in one. For there to even be a hearing in the Bronx was a function of an organizing effort by CASA. That shows the power of organizing. And now what we want is for more New Yorkers to be a part of that same process.
Question: You know, one of the criticisms of the Office of Engagement is that some people thought it would maybe just be a continuation of your political efforts on the city level and you know, you've made clear that you would like to see the rent frozen as part of your major campaign promise. So, I wonder if you have this organization sort of organizing and I can't imagine most people who testify are going to be in favor of rent hikes. Are you concerned about that criticism at all that this maybe appears to be a sort of using city tax government resources to push your political agenda?
Mayor Mamdani: What we have here is a commitment from our City government to ensure that New Yorkers are actually a part of the governing that we do, and I've made very clear that the [Rent Guidelines] Board is an independent board. They have to make an independent decision, and we will also be making very clear to anyone who canvases as a part of this initiative that there is no tolerance for the encouraging of any kind of specific testimony. We are knocking on doors. We are asking, "Do you know if you're rent stabilized? Will you come and testify"? When you knock on the door of a landlord, you don't presume what it is that they may say, though we have also heard from landlords of their perspective. We have also heard from tenants of their perspective.
We want to ensure, however, that it isn't just the same 0.02 percent who are the ones who see themselves as part of this process. It has to be far more than that. And I'll say this even specifically to landlords — there are landlord advocacy groups that testify at these hearings. There are far more landlords who are not part of any kind of formalized group. Part of the work of OME is also going to be to build a database to knock on the doors of landlords, to reach out directly — starting today, actually — to ensure that they too know that they can testify themselves independently. And I don’t know, Steve, if you want to add anything specific?
Corporation Counsel Steven Banks: Yeah, I think it's an important question that you're raising and for too long — my role in the past was at the Legal Aid Society — so many of these hearings did not include the full spectrum of views including landlords and tenants. And as the mayor said, there are lots of landlords that don't know about the process, they see the result of the process. We want to make sure everybody puts their views on the record before the rent guidelines board so that the independent board can make the determinations they're empowered to make based upon the evidence before it from both landlords and from tenants.
Question: So, following up on the last question, was the conflict-of-interest boards consulted and like the crafting of this campaign or any other like outside groups like good government groups to talk about what could be, you know, an issue with this campaign.
Mayor Mamdani: So, I'll just bring back our [Corporation] Council. What I will say is that we consulted closely with our Corporations Council with a view to ensuring that all of this was above board and we have their full confidence, but Steve, if you'd like to add anything.
Corporation Counsel Banks: Yeah, I would just, you know, lift up what the mayor said. We're focused on civic engagement and people participating irrespective of whether they're tenants or landlords. Because at the end of the day, the best result from the rent guidelines board is going to be as a result of having all the input across the full spectrum of people affected, both landlords and tenants.
Mayor Mamdani: I’ll say one last thing before we go to off [topics], which is just to just to say it once more. The rent guidelines board has laid out in their process that a critical part is hearing from those their decision would impact. For us to be complacent and accepting of a process where 0.02 percent of those impacted are testifying is to me a failure of civic engagement. And what this office and our partners here — alongside multiple levels of City government, as well as those who have been organizing for so many years — are dedicated towards, is ensuring that far more New Yorkers understand not only the responsibility that government has, but also the role that they have in informing the decisions of government as well as of independent boards like the Rent Guidelines Board.
Question: Mr. Mayor, I want to take you from the Bronx to Park Avenue. I know that's a weird juxtaposition. I know that your administration is considering a redesign of about 11 blocks of Park Avenue to make it more hospitable to pedestrians and people who want to enjoy the parkland. I wonder what your goal is there. And if also if you're concerned — given the fact that you're going to take two traffic lanes — if there's going to add to congestion in an already-congested city.
Mayor Mamdani: So, to your question, our goal in this redesign is to put the park back into Park Avenue. And we want to transform Midtown Manhattan by providing residents and visitors alike with more usable public space. And we're frankly excited about unveiling the design concepts for the redesign of Park Avenue. And a lot of this is guided by a belief that our city's public spaces must better serve the public. And our administration has made that a priority through both infrastructure investments as well as street redesigns, and working with partners at the city level, at the state level, as well as at the civic society level, [which] will ensure that our streets truly do become the envy of the world. This is one part of that.
Question: I just wonder if you're worried about increased congestion and as a sidelight to that, are you considering doing this in other places, because Park Avenue in that ten-block [area] is not the only place where you could, you know, make park land more accessible to people.
Mayor Mamdani: We've been very clear that we want our streets to be the envy of the world. And as you've made clear, there are many parts of our streetscape across the five boroughs where we cannot accurately describe them as such. And so, I've told DOT that we want them to put forward any proposals that they have that would make for a streetscape to be more livable, to be more usable — also to be safer, because that is an immense concern for so many New Yorkers, especially parents of young children, the safety of our streetscape. And when it comes to the impacts of this redesign, we're confident about the fact that it would not only draw more people to Park Avenue but also would be a better experience for those who are already there on Park Avenue.
Question: But what about street congestion?
[Crosstalk.]
Mayor Mamdani: We're confident about the impacts that this will have.
Question: Actually, a quick on-topic. Is there a script you're sharing with people involved in this campaign? Like specifically, what are they asking? Is it just, “Are you rent-stabilized? Will you testify?” And the same for landlords. What's the question you're asking landlords? And then off-topic, last night, Carl Wilson.
[Crosstalk.]
Mayor Mamdani: Let me answer this one. I'm just trying to organize my brain. On the on-topic, you know, I will invite our commissioner. I can say broadly, and then I'll pass it over to Tascha. Broadly, I would say the critical questions here are: “Are you rent-stabilized? Will you testify”? We've made it very clear that there's no tolerance for the encouragement of any kind of specific testimony. It's rather an ascertaining of their status as whether or not they're rent-stabilized tenant or a landlord of rent-stabilized building and then informing them of when that hearing will actually be. I don't know, Tascha, if you want to add anything to that. The question is, is there a specific script to this?
Commissioner Van Auken: Oh, yes, the mayor pretty much just laid it out, but we will be asking folks if they know if they are rent stabilized or not [and] helping them understand how to find out if they don't know. And then we will let them know about the Rent Guidelines Board hearings and how to sign up to testify. But all of our materials will be very clear that we are going to folks' doors to make sure they know how to participate. We are not telling people how or what to say.
Question: After the results last night in the special election, do you think Lindsey Boylan should continue to run, you know, officially campaign in June?
Mayor Mamdani: Well, I think first and foremost what I would say is congratulations to Carl Wilson for a hard-fought victory yesterday evening. And I look forward to working with Council Member Wilson for the West Side, whether it means affordable housing, universal childcare or delivering a budget that works for so many across the five boroughs. And I also do want to recognize Lindsey Boylan for the campaign that she ran. Her and many of her volunteers knocked on thousands of doors. And I really do believe that that's exactly the kinds of effort that strengthens our democracy.
Question: Do you think she should run for June?
Mayor Mamdani: My focus is on the special.
Question: If you have a moment to chat with King Charles today down at the World Trade Center Memorial, how do you view your role as mayor? Do you see it as being sort of a polite, diplomatic moment? You just say “hello” and “welcome”? Or is there anything else you would say to him? Do you have a specific message you might want to deliver?
Mayor Mamdani: I'll be saying that today I'll be attending a wreath-laying alongside a number of other elected officials, including Governor Hochul [and] Governor Sherrill. And the focus of that wreath-laying is to honor the more than 3,000 New Yorkers who were killed in the horrific terror attacks of September 11. And that's what I'm really looking to do at that event.
Question: So, you haven't thought about anything you might say if you say hello to him and he stops to chat?
Mayor Mamdani: If I [were] to speak to the king separately from that, I would probably encourage him to return the Koh-i-Noor Diamond.
Question: Mr. Mayor, so yesterday you said that there's no amount of savings that could close your budget gap, but the governor later that day said, “Well, listen, I have 57 other counties to deal with, and I'm telling all of them to present savings.” Wondering, you know, do you think that she is starving the city in the way that you've accused her predecessors of doing, like Andrew Cuomo? Is that the approach that she is taking right now?
Mayor Mamdani: I think the governor has been a partner in the work that we are looking to do in delivering a balanced budget. We inherited a fiscal deficit the likes of which the city has not seen in generations, and the governor has been a partner along that many-month process where we have not only secured additional state commitments but also seen proposals coming forward of a pied-à-terre tax that would raise half a billion dollars for the city by taxing the secondary homes of non-resident New Yorkers that are worth more than $5 million. And we're looking forward to keeping working with the governor because we believe that savings are critical.
We also believe that there is no amount of savings that would absolve Albany of the need to partner with the city given the scale of this crisis. And what we're looking at right now is the need, whether it be through additional revenue or through cost shifts, to ensure that we have structural solutions to a structural problem. And the reason I say structural problem is that this is not an amount of money that was created as a deficit because of the spending our administration did.
This was a deficit we inherited due to long-standing spending that was not being accounted for or budgeted. And so, we're looking forward to working with the governor and with Majority Leader of the State Senate Andrea Stewart-Cousins and the Speaker of the Assembly Carl Heastie in resolving this.
Question: A follow-up to the Lindsey Boylan race. How will you approach, you know, after the results of your endorsement, you were accused by some of the elected officials that you didn't give the other candidates a fair shake. How will you approach future endorsements, and will it perhaps be differently? Will you take a more measured approach?
Mayor Mamdani: I will always look to work with anyone who wants to advance the affordability agenda. And the reason for my focus on that is that New Yorkers are being priced out of the most expensive city in the United States of America. And I'm excited to work with Council Member Wilson on delivering that affordability agenda to the West Side, on working together to build more housing, on universal childcare [and] on a balanced budget. And I'm also looking forward to doing so with our partners at every level of government.
Thank you all.
