New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani and Council Speaker Julie Menin are urging the State to approve a budget that will help fund the multi-billion budget gap that the city is facing -- while supporting the State in extending its final budget deadline to June.
Mamdani and Menin appeared Tuesday in the City Hall rotunda to announce a new agreement to lobby for a $1 billion tax rollback and more State aid.
"New York City faces a budget crisis of historic magnitude," Mamdani said Tuesday during a joint press conference. "We've inherited a deficit larger than any since the Great Recession. Years of mismanagement and chronic under budgeting, alongside a structural imbalance between what New York City sends to the State and what we receive in return, have taken a toll. We cannot close this deficit with savings alone. We need new revenue. And we need a structural reset in our relationship with the State. That is the only way to meet our legal obligation to pass a balanced budget and to do so without imposing a financial burden into the backs of working people."

CUT SPENDING !!!!!!!!!
Enjoy the suck.
This idiot should be in Gaza fighting off rats and weasels
Your son is living well beyond his means. He demands that Dad give him money so he can continue to live beyond his means. Meanwhile, your son has pissed off the sources of his current income, meaning the Dad-loans will only get larger.
A friend’s son, then in his late early twenties and living at home, but later wildly successful told me, “The best thing that ever happened to me was Dad cutting me off and kicking me out.”
Get the invaders to balance the budget before deporting them.
We’ve inherited a deficit larger than any since the Great Recession“
Bald faced liar. He wants to steal more for lazy liberals who want to post selfies all day and complain their food stamps don’t pay for candy
Mamdani has that lethal combination of arrogance and ignorance that results in him thinking that he is the first to come up with this line of “I just came into office and found a massive government deficit crisis and need a bailout.” Its amusing to watch from afar (since I don’t live in the city and don’t have to suffer through his BS).
BINGO! When you and I can’t afford something, we don’t buy it. NYC should try that approach. I’ll bet if they look REAL hard, they can find enough stupid spending to balance the budget.
Madmandani is a historical Trainwreck of a Mayor. Sucks to be him, his name will go down in infamy and in the end be changed to Mudmandamnhim.
This should be easy to debunk.
EMBRACE THE SUCK, SUCKERS!
Tax the Socialists.
Years of mismanagement? Who’s been running new York lo these many years?
First this commie mayor will cloward Priven bankrupt and collapse new York city, and is now telegraphing his intention to cloward Priven collapse new York state, then he hopes to bring cloward Priven bankruptcy and collapse to all the other states and the country as a whole.
It’s their reverse domino war by other means plan .
“ ” Its amusing to watch from afar (since I don’t live in the city and don’t have to suffer through his BS).”
True.
But they will try to find a way to federalize their problems and get us to pay for their foolishness.
What is “the Great Recession”?
You know he isn’t going to do that. His whole reason for getting elected was lots of free stuff.
He wrote a big check his arse couldn’t cash.
Nincompoops who voted for him aren’t getting anything because the people he wants to do the paying are in the process of rebelling. Some for political reasons, some for financial reasons, and some for both.
bttt
Mamdani doesn’t care about budgets, he just has to deliver some free stuff or get booted in short order.
