Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has called for New York City Mayor Eric Adams to resign, citing a flood of resignations and vacancies within his administration as well as ongoing federal corruption investigations and scandals. Ocasio-Cortez, the most prominent Democrat to make such a demand, argues that these issues are threatening the functioning of the city government and making it impossible to recruit and retain qualified staff. She stated that Adams should step down for the good of the city.
