Not to rain on everyone's parade, but this is not Mamdani's initiative, though of course he is making the correct choice in continuing it.

Don't misunderstand me, I hate that corrupt piece of shit Adams, but the truth is important anyway.

Well on my list of the most important things it's the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth.
