## Resource

Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s judicial advisory committee—charged with selecting city judges for family, criminal, and civil courts—has drawn fire for excluding all Jewish members, sparking outrage from Jewish legal and civil rights groups who say it ignores the city’s diverse population. Despite claims of diversity and merit, the 18-member panel, chaired by the mayor’s election attorney, contains no Jewish attorneys, judges, or professors. Even a retired Jewish judge was reportedly passed over due to past work on Ghislaine Maxwell’s team—a move critics call weak and dismissive. Groups like the Anti-Defamation League are demanding immediate action, warning this exclusion signals a troubling retreat from inclusive governance.
