In Chicago, 26 city council members oppose Mayor Johnson’s proposal to tax 3% of the wealthiest corporations. What could possibly be influencing them…?

Emanuel killed it. Johnson wants it back. Chicago’s corporate head tax debate is about more than money • The TRiiBE
Proponents say former Mayor Rahm Emanuel’s removal of the corporate head tax left a hole in the city's budget that was never replaced; they want the rich to pay their fair share.

Reject this framing from the Trib: “Most new taxes would need Springfield approval, but the mayor’s frosty relationship w/ Pritzker thus far makes that prospect slim.”
If Pritzker wanted to redistribute wealth, Brandon Johnson would not be able to stop him.

High stakes for Mayor Brandon Johnson’s progressive agenda in head tax push
Having already failed to deliver other key tenets of his ambitious tax-the-rich wish list, the head tax is a watershed moment for Mayor Brandon Johnson and his allies.

Thinking about when Willie Wilson said police “should be able to chase them [anyone who runs from police] down, and hunt them down like a rabbit,” and Paul Vallas wanted to “take the handcuffs off police.”
Everyone’s getting to see what that looks like in practice now & they don’t seem to like it.

As Chicago undergoes the 2026 budget season, digging for ways to close a $1.15 billion shortfall, past choices of previous mayors echo throughout City Hall.
