New York City Mayor Eric Adams announced a balanced budget of $109.4 billion for the upcoming fiscal year, with better-than-expected tax revenue and reduced projected costs of sheltering migrants. This could improve his political standing but weaken his negotiating position with Washington. The City Council, empowered by the increased revenue projections, may push back on the mayor's proposed cuts, creating political difficulty closer to home.
