New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani met with President Trump at the White House to discuss increasing housing production, presenting a proposal for a large housing project with over 12,000 homes.

The meeting also addressed the detention of a Columbia University student by ICE agents. Mamdani reported that Trump assured him the student would be released imminently, and she was indeed released shortly after.

Mamdani also provided Trump with a list of four additional students targeted in pro-Palestinian protests. The housing proposal was met with enthusiasm from Trump, who had previously asked Mamdani to return with ideas for significant development.
