Rahm Emanuel unveiled his 2016 city budget Tuesday, pitching the idea that $543 million in new property taxes and several other tax and fee hikes would "finish the job" of securing Chicago's financial future.
In a speech front-loaded with laudatory statements about his first term, Emanuel warned that city government's "fiscal challenges are blocking our ability to expand opportunities to more of our residents."
"Now is the time. This is the council. Let us commit to finishing the job," Emanuel told the City Council.
