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

“Your enemies are not immigrants, they are the one percent who hoard the wealth and leave you without basic needs.”
Mamdani said he couldn’t be more excited to share this moment with his committee members.

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

Requero Lindor lists herself as a “breastfeeding + home birth + social justice advocate” in her Instagram bio. Her husband was traded to the Mets before the 2021 season.
He criticized the Trump administration in March.
“The Trump administration’s push to get rid of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) and Critical Race Theory (CRT) programs is a big mistake that will only make things worse for everyone,” he wrote on Threads. “Ignoring racism in history doesn’t make it go away; it just keeps people uninformed and prevents us from solving real problems. CRT isn’t about blaming people; it’s about understanding how the past shaped the present so we can build a more just future.
“Getting rid of DEI programs is equally harmful. These programs help ensure that schools, workplaces, and communities are open to everyone, regardless of their background. When they are eliminated, talented people lose opportunities and companies lose fresh ideas and innovation. A society that values diversity is stronger and more successful. But when we stop these efforts, we create more division, more misunderstandings, and fewer opportunities for people to succeed.”
