Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s proposal for a 2-percentage-point city income tax surcharge on earners above $1 million requires New York State legislative authorization and Governor Kathy Hochul’s approval to take effect before 2027. Hochul has consistently opposed the measure, favoring alternatives such as the pied-à-terre tax on high-value second homes that Albany enacted in May 2026. Legislative leaders have shown limited appetite for advancing the surcharge amid budget negotiations, and no vote or special session has materialized. Trader consensus at roughly 95 percent “No” reflects these institutional barriers and the substitution of other revenue tools. A sudden fiscal shortfall, leadership change, or unexpected coalition in Albany could still reopen the issue before the deadline.

This market will resolve to “Yes” if both the following occur:
1. Zohran Mamdani wins the 2025 NYC Mayoral election.
2. A policy is enacted in New York City before December 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET, which would establish a tax increase of 2% or more targeting individuals, households, or family units with an income of at least $1 million (USD or equivalent).
When the proposed tax goes into effect (e.g., if a qualifying tax is enacted for the 2028 fiscal year) will have no bearing on this market's resolution, so long as the policy has actually been enacted within this market's timeframe.
The policy will be considered to have been enacted if a local or state law is passed, or mayoral executive order is issued which will bring the stated tax into effect within the specified timeframe. The introduction, proposal, or announcement of such a policy without legal enactment will not qualify.
Policies which include limited exceptions—such as such as exceptions for specific families, asset classes, etc.—will still qualify as long as a general tax as described is enacted.
If Mamdani is confirmed to have lost the 2025 NYC Mayoral election by a consensus of credible reporting, or if the stated terms are not satisfied within this market's timeframe, this market will immediately resolve to “No”.
The resolution source for this market will be a consensus of credible reporting.
