The lone City Council Democrat who opposed the Big Apple’s newly-passed roughly $126 billion budget slammed Mayor Zohran Mamdani, claiming he short-changed her constituents while wealthier districts received more funding. Bronx Councilwoman Althea Stevens blasted the democratic socialist mayor over what she called a lack of “equity” in his first budget — accusing him of not allotting enough cash for her district, which faces high rates of poverty and gun violence. “What made this even more difficult was seeing districts with higher incomes and greater access to resources receive significantly larger investments while neighborhoods like mine continue to fight for the basics,” she said in a statement.
