Mayor Zohran Mamdani on Friday announced he personally secured a 90-day delay for bodegas to comply with new federal food-stamp rules through direct negotiations with the Trump administration. Hizzoner wrote to Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins last week requesting a six-month delay for stores to adhere to the new guidelines, which require SNAP-authorized retailers to stock seven varieties each of dairy, grains, proteins and produce instead of the current three. “I am grateful that President Trump has agreed to delay beginning of enforcement of this rule, and we will continue fighting to protect our neighborhood businesses and the New Yorkers who depend on them,” Mamdani said in a statement.
