Rent wars: Kenny Burgos vs. NYC housing policies

Kenny Burgos and Zohran Mamdani have a lot in common. They are both former state assemblymen and both graduates of the Bronx High School of Science. As assemblymen in Albany, they became good friends and often were confused for one another. But now they find themselves on opposite sides of a major issue affecting New Yorkers, with Burgos being the CEO of the New York Apartment Association, an organization representing landlords of rent-stabilized apartments. Meanwhile, Mamdani vociferously campaigned for mayor last year on a platform of freezing New Yorkers' rents.

Burgos joined NY1's Errol Louis to talk about his relationship with the mayor, how he hopes to further his agenda despite an administration pushing for a rent freeze and why he believes a freeze would "break the system."
