New York Mets star shortstop Francisco Lindor’s wife, Katia Reguero Lindor, was listed as a member of New York City Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani’s inaugural committee.
Reguero Lindor was included in the membership list released by Mamdani earlier this week as host of “The Unaparent Podcast.” Reguero Lindor took to social media to support Mamdani in the November elections.
“Supporting politicians who fight for immigrants, artists, workers and all those who deserve a dignified life is not against my interests, even though I am in a different economic situation, my well-being is linked to the well-being of others. When humanity thrives, we all do. Choosing kindness, fairness and solidarity is not radical – it is what keeps us human,” Requero Lindor captioned the post she reshared, according to Sportskeeda.com.

“Our city’s artists, thinkers, organizers and activists have shaped the look, sound and atmosphere of New York,” Mamdani said. “This is a celebration of the movement that made this victory possible and the start of a new dawn for our city. I couldn’t be more excited to share this moment with these committee members and with New Yorkers across all five boroughs.”
Other celebrities such as actor and filmmaker John Turturro, actress and activist Cynthia Nixon and actor and author Kal Penn are also on the committee.

Requero Lindor describes herself as a “breastfeeding + homebirth + social justice advocate” in her Instagram bio. Her husband was traded to the Mets before the 2021 season.
She criticized the Trump administration in March.
“The Trump administration’s efforts to get rid of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) and Critical Race Theory (CRT) programs are a huge mistake that will only make things worse for everyone,” she wrote on Threads. “Ignoring racism in history does not make it disappear; it just keeps people misinformed and prevents us from solving the real problems. The goal of CRT is not to blame people; it’s about understanding how the past has shaped the present so that we can build a more just future.
“Getting rid of DEI programs is just as bad. These programs help ensure that schools, workplaces, and communities are open to everyone, regardless of their background. When you eliminate them, talented people miss out on opportunities and businesses lose new ideas and innovation. A society that values diversity is stronger and more prosperous. But when we stop these efforts, we create more divisions, more misunderstandings, and fewer opportunities for them to succeed. people.”
