Ald. Bennett Lawson (44) posted "This week, I joined all 50 Aldermen in rejecting the proposed $300M property tax increase. We're calling for alternatives to avoid burdening residents. I'm also against the alcohol tax, which would harm small businesses vital to Lakeview's character."

Ald. Debra Silverstein (50) posted "I joined with my colleagues in the City Council yesterday to vote down the Mayor’s proposed $300 million property tax hike. Local residents are already feeling the strain of increased cost of living and the second highest property tax rate in the country. The Mayor’s budget proposal put an unfair burden on our hardworking families. The hearing process will continue until the Mayor puts forward a city budget for FY2025 that is acceptable."

Ald. Raymond Lopez (15) posted "The people's will has spoken, and Mr. Mayor, they say NO to a property tax increase! Although this is a big win for Chicago taxpayers, the fight is far from over. We can continue to expect more smoke-and-mirror budget proposals and gaslighting platitudes, but Chicagoans will see right through them. For residents who voiced their concerns with their respective Alderman, our City thanks you! We have to continue to let this administration know that taxpayers are not a slush fund, and it's time tax dollars get reinvested in Chicagoans."
