New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani referenced a Ronald Reagan remark during a Monday press conference while discussing plans for city-owned grocery stores. He offered his own take on government assistance for working families.
Mamdani quoted Reagan's line that the nine most terrifying words are 'I'm from the government and I'm here to help.' He responded that nine more terrifying words are actually 'I worked all day and can't feed my family.' The mayor described the quote as good but said he disagrees with its message.
