NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani's new Business Advisory Council, launched last month "to help shape the city’s next phase of economic growth and innovation," according to his office, includes 4 billionaires: Hamdi Ulukaya (Chobani CEO), Tony James (Jefferson River Capital Chariman), Scott Rechler (Chairman and CEO of RXR), and Doug Steiner (Chairman of Steiner Studios). The net worth of some other members is not publicly available.

￭ Notably, Steiner's father served as president of AIPAC until 1992, when he resigned in scandal after the release of a secretly recorded telephone conversation in which he claimed massive influence over US foreign policy, federal aid to the Israeli occupation, and presidential administration appointments.
