纽约市市长Zohran Mamdani提议增加9.5%的财产税,这是20多年来首次增加财产税,以解决2026年和2027年54亿美元的预算缺口,理由是国家对富人和公司的税收支持不足。 New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani has proposed a 9.5% property tax increase—the first in over two decades—to address a $5.4 billion budget gap for 2026 and 2027, citing insufficient state support for taxes on the wealthy and corporations. 该计划是初步预算1 270亿美元的一部分,包括从城市储备金中提取9.8亿美元,从退休人员保健基金提取2.29亿美元。 The plan, part of a preliminary $127 billion budget, includes drawing $980 million from city reserves and $229 million from a retiree health fund. Mamdani称增税为最后手段,强调州一级改革的必要性,以避免给中低收入居民带来负担。 Mamdani calls the tax hike a last resort, emphasizing the need for state-level reforms to avoid burdening middle- and lower-income residents. 包括市议会领导人和主计长马克·莱文在内的批评者警告这一举动是倒退的,并有可能在可负担的危机中破坏财政稳定。 Critics, including City Council leaders and Comptroller Mark Levine, warn the move is regressive and risks undermining fiscal stability amid an affordability crisis. 最后预算必须在6月30日前获得批准,城市和州领导人之间的谈判正在进行中。 The final budget must be approved by June 30, with negotiations ongoing between city and state leaders.
