Just two months after taking up the job, New York City Mayor Zoran Mamdani is facing his biggest test to date.
Today, he must present a balanced budget for the coming fiscal year, which kicks off months of wrangling with the city council.
And with a predicted budget shortfall of up to $12 billion over the next two years, Journal reporter James Finelli says it's a significant challenge for a mayor who vowed not to cut social programs.

Hotelier Thomas Pritzker is retiring as the executive chairman of Hyatt after recently released documents detailed his ties to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
Pritzker is a member of one of Chicago's most prominent families, which includes Illinois' current governor and a former U.S.
Commerce Secretary.
In a statement, Pritzker said he exercised terrible judgment in maintaining contact with Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell,
and in a memo to the board, added that his departure would allow for a proper handoff at Hyatt.
The company has named its president and chief executive as board chair.
Meanwhile, Wall Street's DEI retreat is continuing, with Goldman Sachs saying it will no longer consider race, sexual orientation, and other diversity factors when screening potential board candidates.
