纽约市市长佐赫兰·曼达尼近日面临新一轮批评,他声称自己推动了外卖员小费收入增加1.04亿美元,但批评人士称,这项增长得益于他上任前就已通过的立法,而且此举可能只会加剧该市的生活成本问题。

此番批评发生在曼达尼在周三的新闻发布会以及社交媒体帖子中宣称“我们已经将1.04亿美元送回了外卖员的口袋”之后,他援引的是优食(Uber Eats)和达美乐(DoorDash)应用程序将 tipping 环节更加突出的调整。

“这只是开始,”曼达尼写道。

这些调整源于纽约市议会在曼达尼就任市长前通过的一项城市法案。前市长埃里克·亚当斯既未签署也未否决该法案,使其在30天后自动生效。该规定于今年1月在曼达尼政府任期内正式实施,并由其负责执行和监管。

在该法律生效前,纽约市消费者和工人保护局发现,优食和达美乐曾隐藏小费按钮,并将默认小费比例设定在10%以下,导致外卖员的小费收入下降了79%。该法律要求两家公司将小费环节更加突出,市政府官员表示,由此带来的调整预计已为外卖员新增了1.04亿美元的小费收入。

曼达尼的办公室驳斥了“该市长在邀功”的批评,辩称尽管消费者和工人保护局在他上任前就推动了这项改革,但相关规定是在他的政府于1月26日开始实施的。

“一项法律的价值全看其执行情况,”曼达尼的一位发言人告诉福克斯新闻数字频道。“我们一直刻意落实现有法律,以便将资金重新交到纽约工薪阶层的口袋里。”

保守派人士和社交媒体上的政治评论员迅速抨击曼达尼,称其加剧了纽约市本已高企的商品和服务成本,还有人指责这位市长将自己任期前就已出台的立法成果据为己有。

“这家伙是个了不起的说谎政客,”演员迈克尔·拉帕波特在X平台上发帖称。“他对此完全没有任何功劳。市议会去年8月就通过了这项法案,埃里克·亚当斯根本没签字。30天后法案自动生效,是在曼达尼上任后才开始实施的。他只是在抢功而已。”

“换句话说,你是想说,你通过将默认小费比例大幅提高,迫使优食和达美乐让纽约人为外卖支付更多费用?”保守派网红账号“左翼主义”在X平台上发帖称。

“社会主义101课——让别人为商品买单,然后装作这是你的成就。”

“即将到来——50美元的牛油果吐司,”《华盛顿自由灯塔报》记者乔恩·莱文在X平台上发帖称。

“所以你是在提高本国公民的物价?”《国家评论》撰稿人普拉迪普·尚克尔在X平台上发帖称。“恭喜啊。”

“真正发生的情况是,”财经播客主持人约瑟夫·卡尔森在X平台上发帖称。“他们强制要求送餐司机每小时至少拿到22美元的最低工资。这笔工资是通过向优食或达美乐客户收取更高配送费来支付的。既然客户已经在支付这些更高的费用了,这些应用程序就将小费设为可选。然后纽约州要求他们在更高的配送费基础上再额外收取小费。

“所以现在纽约(居民)既要支付高昂的基础配送费,又要额外支付小费。客户相当于为配送服务付了双份钱。所有这些成本都转嫁到了纽约居民身上。由于市场操纵,他们为商品和服务支付的费用远超市场正常水平。”

Mamdani’s ‘this is only the beginning’ announcement cracking down on food delivery tips sparks outrage

Critics pointed out the legislation Mamdani touted predated his term as NYC mayor

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani is facing fresh criticism after taking credit for a reported $104 million increase in delivery worker tips that critics say was made possible by legislation enacted before he took office and will likely only exacerbate cost of living issues in the city.

The criticism comes after Mamdani declared at a press conference Wednesday and in a social media post, “We’ve put $104 million back in delivery workers’ pockets,” citing changes to Uber Eats’ and DoorDash’s apps that made tipping more prominent.

“This is only the beginning,” Mamdani wrote.

Those changes stem from a city law approved by the New York City Council before Mamdani became mayor. Former Mayor Eric Adams neither signed nor vetoed the measure, allowing it to become law after 30 days. The rules took effect in January under the Mamdani administration, which implemented and enforced the requirements.

Before the law took effect, the New York City Department of Consumer and Worker Protection found that Uber Eats and DoorDash had hidden tip buttons and set default tips below 10%, contributing to a 79% decline in tips for delivery workers. The law required the companies to make tipping more prominent, and city officials say the resulting changes have since generated an estimated $104 million in additional tips.

Mamdani’s office rejected the criticism that the mayor was taking credit for someone else’s work, arguing that while the Department of Consumer and Worker Protection pushed for the reforms before he took office, the rules were implemented under his administration beginning Jan. 26.

“A law is only as good as its implementation,” a spokesperson for Mamdani told Fox News Digital. “We have been intentional about enforcing the laws on the books so that we are putting money back into the pockets of working New Yorkers.”

Conservatives and political commentators on social media quickly blasted Mamdani for the already high costs of goods and services in New York City, and some accused the mayor of taking credit for legislation that was born before his term.

“This guy is a fantastic lying politician,” actor Michael Rapaport posted on X. “He had literally nothing to do with this. City Council passed the bill last August and 419 Eric Adams never signed it. 30 days the bill became law. It went into effect when Mamdani was in office. He just taking the credit.”

“In other words you are trying to say that you forced Uber and Doordash to make it that New Yorkers pay more for their food deliveries by having the default tip amount be a lot higher,” conservative influencer account Leftism posted on X.

“Socialism 101 — have others pay for things and make as if it’s your accomplishment.”

“Coming soon —$50 avocado toast,” Washington Free Beacon reporter Jon Levine posted on X.

“So you increased prices for your citizens?” National Review contributor Pradheep Shanker posted on X. “Congrats.”

“What really happened,” finance podcaster Joseph Carlson posted on X. “They forced delivery drivers to be paid minimum wage of $22/hr. This wage is paid by higher fees passed on to DoorDash or Uber customer. Since the customer was already paying these higher fees, these apps made tipping optional. Then New York required them to also be tipped on top of the higher fees.

“So now New York (residents) get to enjoy paying both a high base pay and a tip on top of it. The customer is double-paying for delivery. All of this cost is passed onto the New Yorker resident. They’re paying more than the market demands for a product and service because of market manipulation.”
