A petition has been launched to disinvite a mayor from attending a 9/11 commemoration ceremony. The petition aims to keep the 25th anniversary focused on remembrance and unity. Some politicians have expressed opposition to the mayor's attendance, including a former city leader and a state governor from the time of the attacks. A candidate for governor has also vowed to protest the mayor's presence.

Further details about the controversy are available from the source. The mayor, who is a progressive politician and the city's first Muslim mayor, has stated that he will attend the ceremony despite the opposition.
