Friday, September 11, 2026
Zohran Mamdani, a New York state senator, attended a 9/11 memorial event at Ground Zero. A petition signed by approximately 110,000 people, including members of 9/11 victims' families, called for Mamdani not to attend. The petition objected to Mamdani's selection of Ramzi Kassem, a civil rights attorney who has represented detainees, according to reporting on the petition's stated concerns.
