Chicago 市长发表2027财年预算演说:176亿美元方案拟复征企业人头税

位于伊利诺伊州库克县的 Chicago 市长 Brandon Johnson 10月21日在市议会发表2027财年预算演说,提出总额176亿美元的「公平份额预算」(Fair Share Budget),目标是在不裁减市府员工、不削减公共服务的情况下,填补约8.824亿美元的预算缺口。
方案的主要增收措施包括:复征企业人头税——定名「公平雇主税」(Equitable Employer Tax),雇员达125人以上的企业须按每名 Chicago 雇员每月25美元缴纳,市府估算可带来约1.018亿美元收入;把体育博彩税率由10.25%提高至20%,预计多收约3,700万美元;并拟举债约4.8亿美元支付警务不当行为和解与判决款项。支出方面,方案提出动用5亿美元增量融资区(TIF)资金、其中2.85亿美元拨予 Chicago 公立学校,另拨3,000万美元支持公共图书馆、1亿美元用于住房与无家可归者服务,并增拨700万美元社区暴力干预计划,资助390名外展人员与50名青少年和平维护员,还计划新开一家市营健康诊所。
市议会须在12月31日前通过预算,听证最快下周开始。由多家商业机构组成的联盟 BOMA/Chicago 10月21日发表联合声明,反对复征人头税,称对雇主按用人征税将削弱城市竞争力。预算最终版本仍待议会审议修改。(GSM 综合市府发布与当地媒体报道)
Chicago Mayor Delivers FY2027 Budget Address: $17.6 Billion 'Fair Share Budget' Proposes Reviving Corporate Head Tax
CHICAGO, Illinois — Mayor Brandon Johnson of Chicago, in Cook County, Illinois, delivered his fiscal year 2027 budget address to the City Council on October 21, proposing a $17.6 billion 'Fair Share Budget' aimed at closing a shortfall of about $882.4 million without city staffing layoffs or public service cuts.
Key revenue measures include reviving a corporate head tax, branded the Equitable Employer Tax, under which companies with 125 or more employees would pay $25 per month for each Chicago-based employee, projected to raise about $101.8 million; raising the sports wagering tax from 10.25 percent to 20 percent, worth roughly $37 million more; and borrowing about $480 million to pay police misconduct settlements and judgments. On spending, the plan would make $500 million in tax increment financing (TIF) funds available, with $285 million going to Chicago Public Schools, plus $30 million for public libraries, $100 million for housing and homelessness services, and an additional $7 million for community violence intervention, including 390 street outreach workers and 50 youth peacekeepers, along with a new city-run health clinic.
The City Council must pass a budget by December 31, with hearings expected to begin as soon as next week. A coalition of business organizations led by BOMA/Chicago issued a joint statement on October 21 opposing the head tax, arguing that taxing employers for jobs would dull the city's competitive edge.
