DSA urging members to ice out Zohran Mamdani adviser Morris Katz over doomed Platner campaign

The lefty political home of Mayor Zohran Mamdani is urging its elected official members and candidates to “no longer contract or work with” Hizzoner’s key adviser Morris Katz — after his disastrous stint on Graham Platner’s campaign.

The bombshell letter blasted out by the Democratic Socialists of America and obtained by The Post had over 500 signatures as of Friday afternoon.

It asked DSA candidates and elected officials to commit to refusing to work with Katz or his consultant firm, Fight Agency, citing his work on the “catastrophic campaign” of Platner, the Maine US Senate hopeful who dropped his bid after being accused of rape.

“Katz helped recruit Platner and supercharged his candidacy with slick video production, friendly media placements, and political connections,” the letter warns members of the 27-year-old socialist fixer.

“Yet even as the scandals mounted, Katz continued to put the full weight of his consultancy behind Platner’s candidacy, foreclosing the possibility of replacing Platner with another candidate before the primary election.”

A source familiar with the matter noted the open letter was being circulated in both the New York City and national chapters of the lefty organization, which currently has over 120,000 members nationwide.

The letter goes on to slam Katz’s and his agency’s previous work — including being instrumental in electing Pennsylvania Sen. John Fetterman.

“Men like Platner must not represent the American Left, and those like Katz who push such candidates should have no role in our movement,” it says.
