Former FTC Chair Lina Khan named as Co-Chair of Mamdani Transition Team
Former FTC Chair Lina Khan was named as Co-Chair of Zohran Mamdani's transition team after Mamdani won the New York City mayoral election on Tuesday. Lina Khan, who was appointed as Chair of the Federal Trade Commission under the Biden Administration, was seen as one of the most aggressive Chairs in terms of enforcing Antitrust laws. It's unclear how her previous role as Chair of the Federal Trade Commission will play a part in the transition team. However, historically, members of the transition team have been appointed to City offices.

It will be interesting to see if her current role will lead to a larger position in the city government. Maybe, depending on how well she does with her current role, there could be a future there. I wonder how big businesses in New York City will handle this, because from the looks of it, things are going to change for them!
