NYC Leaders Push to Trim Millionaire Tax Credit to Balance City Budget
New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani and City Council Speaker Julie Menin joined to urge Gov. Hochul and Albany to scale back the Pass-Through Entity Tax (PTET) credit that largely benefits millionaires, hoping to raise about $1 billion to help close NYC's budget gap; Hochul rejected the change, complicating the city's budget process amid delayed state spending and ongoing negotiations.
