New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio announced that his entire office, including himself, will be furloughed for a week to help fight the city's multibillion-dollar budget crisis.
The mayor’s office budget will be 12% less this fiscal year compared to last year's. De Blasio, wife Chirlane McCray and 493 others will take unpaid furlough at some point.
With a mayoral salary of $258,541 per year, de Blasio is expected to miss out on around $4,972 in a week-long furlough.
The mayor’s office found $12 million in savings over previous budgets, he said.
The mayor's office have 500 employees with a salary of 300 million dollars in addition to the cost. What a performance. Just a thought.
