Excerpt:
U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders will swear in New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio when the mayor is inaugurated Monday for his second and final term, City Hall announced Wednesday.

Between 1,000 and 1,500 people are expected to watch the ceremony, scheduled for noon in the plaza in front of City Hall, de Blasios spokeswoman Jaclyn Rothenberg said.

Sanders’ wife, Jane Sanders, will attend, as will de Blasio’s wife, Chirlane McCray.

“Senator Sanders is a proud son of Brooklyn and a dedicated advocate for working people. Senator Sanders’ progressive leadership has helped reshape the American political debate in favor of men and women long left out of our city and nation’s prosperity,” de Blasio said in a statement.
