  • 摘要
  • 纽约州长反对增税
  • 市长称预算缺口从120亿美元降至70亿美元
  • 纽约市初步预算将于周二公布

2月11日(路透社)- 纽约市市长佐兰·曼达尼(Zohran Mamdani)周三呼吁对年收入超过100万美元的纽约人征收2%的增税,并提高该州的企业所得税率。这些提案是他在竞选期间最初大力倡导的。

在纽约州参议院2026年预算听证会上作证时,民主党人曼达尼表示,该市的预算缺口通过”在不损害城市服务的情况下采取积极的储蓄姿态,纳入更新的收入和奖金预估,并使用年内储备金”,已从120亿美元减少至70亿美元。

尽管预算赤字有所缩小,曼达尼表示,纽约仍”处于危险的边缘”。

“我认为最富有的个人和利润最高的企业应该多贡献一些,这样每个人都能过上有尊严的生活,”将于周二公布纽约市初步预算的曼达尼表示。

“这就是为什么——除了提高企业税——我还要求对最富有的纽约人征收2%的个人所得税增税。”

曼达尼表示,2%的增税将解决该市近一半的预算赤字。他在竞选时曾承诺将纽约州企业所得税率从7.25%提高到11.5%。

民主党纽约州长凯西·霍赫尔(Kathy Hochul)必须批准曼达尼提出的任何增税提案。

霍赫尔的发言人未立即回应置评请求。

上月公布预算的州长重申了她反对该州任何增税的立场。

“我们能够在不增税的情况下,对我们的未来进行变革性投资,而不会让下一代背负巨额债务,”霍赫尔上月表示。

  • Summary
  • New York governor opposes tax increases
  • Mayor says budget gap lowered from $12 billion to $ 7 billion
  • City’s preliminary budget to be released Tuesday

Feb 11 (Reuters) – New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani on Wednesday has called for a two percent tax increase for New Yorkers making over a million dollars a year, along with a hike in the state’s corporate tax rate, proposals he originally championed during his campaign.

During testimony before the New York State Senate’s 2026 budget hearing, Mamdani, a Democrat, said the city’s budget gap has decreased from $12 billion to $7 billion by “assuming an aggressive posture on savings without compromising city services, incorporating updated revenue and bonus estimates, and using in-year reserves.”

Despite a narrowing of the budget shortfall, Mamdani said, New York is “placed on a ledge.”

“I believe the wealthiest individuals and most profitable corporations should contribute a little more so that everyone can live lives of dignity,” said Mamdani, who will release the city’s preliminary budget on Tuesday.

“That’s why—along with raising the corporate tax—I’m asking for a 2% personal income tax increase on the most affluent New Yorkers.”

Mamdani said a two percent tax increase would resolve nearly half of the city’s budget deficit. He campaigned to increase the New York’s corporate rate from 7.25% to 11.5%.

Democratic New York Governor Kathy Hochul would have to approve any tax increases proposed by Mamdani.

A spokesperson for Hochul did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

The governor, who presented her budget last month, has reiterated her opposition to any tax hikes in the state.

“We’re able to make transformative investments in our future. Without raising taxes. Without saddling the next generation with mounds of debt,” Hochul said last month.
