And lazy from a practical perspective \u2014 you can\u2019t focus City Hall staff to hold the hearings, write the briefings, and execute the bill signings.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>Nearly every other bill that sat on his desk eventually became law, though, as city policy stipulates legislation is automatically approved if no action is taken within a four-week period.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>While approving legislation has been a secondary concern for Mamdani, his office has apparently spent most of their time focused on social media videos.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The article concludes:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>Mamdani made time to call Israeli President Benjamin Netanyahu a \u201cwar criminal\u201d earlier this year and said he\u2019d asked NYPD to look into how to arrest him, but sat on bills requiring wellness checks on elderly city residents when temperatures rise above 95 degrees and expanding free childcare programs, which he campaigned on last year.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>New York has had some colorful mayors in the past (before social media). I always loved Ed Koch, who was mayor from <span class=\"fc-falcon\">1978 to 1989. I may not have always liked his policies, but he embodied the spirit of the city. He made New York City fun.
