I wanted to share an update on San Francisco’s budget and how we are working to get our fiscal house in order. When I took office, we inherited a significant structural deficit. That means the city was set up to spend more money than it brings in, year after year. Today, that gap is projected to reach $1 billion dollars over the next five years. Over the past year, we’ve taken steps to close this gap and bring long-term spending more in line with revenue. We also know that increasing sustainable revenue for our city is crucial to solving our budget problem. Since the day I became mayor, we’ve been taking steps to create the conditions for San Francisco’s economic recovery. Today, our streets are safer and cleaner, and people struggling on the streets are getting into treatment. We’re making it easier to open and operate a small business in our city. And that progress has led to results: Businesses of all sizes are coming back to San Francisco, people are shopping downtown again, and tax revenues are higher than projected. While we are making meaningful progress, we are not out of the woods. Our economic recovery is very fragile. And since last year’s budget, the city has faced new federal and state funding cuts. This means our budget gap would reach $1 billion in the coming years if we don’t act. The charter requires that, as mayor, I submit a balanced budget each June—we cannot spend more money than we bring in. And we must also address this long-term $1 billion dollar deficit. Because if we don’t act now, we will have to do twice as much in the coming years, with the choices becoming more expensive and more difficult. This year’s budget will include painful but necessary decisions. I know they will impact individuals and communities, and I take this seriously—which is why we must act now to avoid even deeper cuts later. This year's budget will continue the work we’ve been doing since last year to manage city funds responsibly and deliver the best possible services. And it will put our city on a path to a lasting economic recovery that benefits all San Franciscans.

My goal in this budget process has always been to make sure we’re funding core, basic services in a balanced and disciplined manner. We know there is an inherent tension between asking people to pay rates, fees and taxes— and the issue of affordability. We want to make sure our city can provide the quality-of-life services that our residents deserve, but we also want to make sure we’re putting affordability first in our community. While I worry a lot about affordability, I also worry about the ability of our city to deliver quality services without more revenue. I strongly believe that if we're not making the kinds of investments we need to make in our people and our services, we will be managing decay in Austin in a very short period of time. This budget will not meet everyone’s concept of perfection. Truthfully, there are parts of the budget that I don’t like. That goes with living in a big, diverse city—different people will have different priorities, and we need to make room for all of us. Now, it is time for us to trust our voters. Voters have an opportunity in November to make a very important decision. From my perspective, the best part of this budget is that we fully fund our homeless strategy office. That was my greatest emphasis, and we've achieved it. It will make a world of difference in getting homeless people off the street in a very short period of time. I'm also very pleased with what we’ve added to funding for public safety, EMS, and wildfire prevention. A positive vote in the November tax rate election will allow us to pay for these needed services. And we make a significant investment in our parks. I look forward to a result that will be the best benefit of our community.

Then came one of the biggest financial updates of the meeting...from Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent. What he revealed was staggering. Bessent said that America is now pulling in RECORD tariff revenues...between $500 BILLION and $1 TRILLION a year...and the budget deficit is already down 26% from Biden’s last year in office. These are not small numbers. Bessent explained how Trump flipped the system on its head. The days of unbalanced international trade are over, and with that comes a massive influx of cash directly affecting America’s deficit. “On the international front you have a leveled the international trading system whereby countries took advantage of us and that’s over. It’s OVER.” “The Treasury Department is in is taking in record tariff revenues that I had been saying was running at a rate of 300 billion a year.” “You chastised me for saying that—number is too low. And as usual, you we’re right, that we had a substantial, jump from July to August, and I think we’re going to see a bigger jump from August to September.” “So I think we could be on our way, well, over half a trillion, maybe the, towards the trillion dollar number.” “This administration, your administration, has made a meaningful dent in the budget deficit.” Even the CBO, which often clashes with the Trump administration, had to concede: the deficit is projected to drop by $4 trillion over the next decade. “The average budget deficit during this term is 26% less than the last 12 months under Biden and even the CBO, and we don’t agree with CBO on everything as you said, last Friday—had to admit that they believe over the next ten years the budget deficit will be 4 trillion lower than they had previously scored.” And according to Bessent, that number could go even higher. “4 trillion: 3.3 trillion of tariff income, 700 billion of lower interest cost, and, you know, I would expect that that number could go up from here.”

“New net zero spending measures Table 3.9 sets out $12.3 billion in new net zero spending commitments over the forward estimates period and $18.2 billion over the medium term, across the 2025-26 MYEFO and this Budget. This follows net zero spending commitments of $6.9 billion (over the medium term) reported in the 2025-26 Budget, $24.3 billion (over the medium term) in the 2024-25 Budget, climate-related spending of $4.6 billion (to 2030) committed in the 2023-24 Budget and $24.9 billion (to 2030) committed in the October 2022-23 Budget.” •••••••••••••••••• Don’t be fooled by last nights budget reply where Angus Taylor said he would index the lower tax brackets. It’s too little too late. The lower tax bracket needs to be removed full stop. It’s absurd that people are taxed below the cost of living. is the only party that has committed to do this and identified the savings to fund it. Indexing the lower bracket of $18,200 by 4% will lift it by a measly $728. Applying next years tax rate of 14 cents, that will save you $102. This is no where near enough to adjust for 4% inflation on the poverty line of $45,000 which is $1,800. If he was serious about cutting taxes, Taylor should have cut spending much harder. There’s at least $10 billion every year wasted on net zero and $10 billion on bureaucrats gold plated pension scheme to name just a few. These are just two of the many programs People First will slash to cut income tax by $4,000 per annum. We will also crack down of offshore profit shifting to cut taxes even further.
