Mayor Brandon Johnson’s Spending Plan That Hikes Taxes by $234M Set for Final Vote

Spread the love

So remember all of the taxes Mayor Johnson is proposing is on top of:
1) Illinois/Pritzker’s budget office projects $3.2B deficit,

2) Chicago Public Schools faces $500M deficit despite $10B budget and

CPS already faced a $391 million shortfall as federal COVID-19 funding was set to expire, but the district said additional “cost pressures” in healthcare and special education resources added more than $100 million to the deficit — bringing the final total to $505 million.

3) Chicago’s Budget Deficit Balloons to Nearly $1 Billion in 2025!

4) And the Cook County Budget has shortfall!

Cook County Board President Toni Preckwinkle today unveiled the preliminary forecast for the County’s Fiscal Year 2025, showing a projected gap of $218.2 million – significantly reduced from the $409.6 million peak during the pandemic. Read More Here!

Do you see what I see? I foresee the state, county, city and CPS trying to raise taxes with the tax levy again and we just had the CPS tax levy when Lightfoot was in office!

Mayor Brandon Johnson’s third proposal to raise property taxes in order to avoid draconian cuts to city services and thousands of layoffs may prove to be the charm.

Two key Chicago City Council committees voted Tuesday to send Johnson’s $17.3 billion spending plan for 2025 to the full City Council for a final vote. The two-step process is set to start Wednesday, with a final vote scheduled for Friday.

The City Council’s Finance Committee voted 14-12 to advance Johnson’s plan to hike property taxes by $68.5 million and increase a host of other taxes and fees by an additional $165.5 million.

Hours later, the City Council’s Budget Committe voted 17-16 to advance the rest of the budget proposal, ensuring that the City Council will be able to vote on the package Friday to avoid an unprecedented shutdown of Chicago city government.

The vote by the Budget Committee came with high drama. As 28th Ward Ald. Jason Ervin, the panel’s chair, tallied the vote, it appeared to be deadlocked, with 16 votes in favor of sending the proposal to the full City Council and 16 votes against. Read More Here!

Spread the love In the quest to combat cancer, a disease that remains one of the leading causes of death worldwide, the medical community continually seeks innovative and alternative treatments. Here’s an overview of several unconventional approaches currently under investigation or discussion: Ivermectin and FenbendazoleIvermectin, traditionally an antiparasitic drug, has been studied for its potential antitumor effects. Research has shown that it can inhibit cancer cell proliferation, induce apoptosis, and modulate pathways like EGFR/ERK/Akt/NF-κB, potentially reversing drug resistance in cancer cells. Similarly, fenbendazole, another antiparasitic, has garnered attention for its potential in cancer treatment. There are anecdotal reports and some preclinical studies suggesting it might inhibit cancer cell growth. Both drugs have been part of protocols like the Joe Tippens Protocol, where they are combined with other supplements and dietary changes, showing some promise in case studies. Tata Institute’s Breakthrough in Cancer Drug DevelopmentThe Tata Institute has been at the forefront of cancer research, developing innovative drugs. One notable breakthrough involves targeting cancer cell metabolism with drugs that can selectively kill cancer cells while sparing healthy ones. Although specific details on the drug are sparse due to ongoing research, this approach aims at disrupting cancer’s energy supply, a novel strategy in cancer therapy. Small Extracellular Vesicles (sEVs)Small extracellular vesicles are nanometer-sized vesicles released by cells that can transfer molecular information between cells, including from cancer cells to healthy ones, influencing tumor progression. Research into sEVs focuses on their potential as biomarkers for early cancer detection and as carriers for therapeutic…
