A New York City nonprofit organization representing grocers is fighting back against Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s city-owned grocery store initiative. 

Frank Garcia, the chairman of the Multicultural Business Coalition, told Spectrum News1 that the organization is considering a lawsuit to stop Mamdani outside of City Hall on May 29. Inside, Garcia attended a hearing with Jeanny Pak, the city’s Economic Development Corporation chief financial officer — the steward of Mamdani’s stores — and City Council Speaker Julie Menin.
