New poll shows supermajority of Chicagoans – 90% of Black and Latino city residents – support higher taxes on big corporations, more resources for schools
The leading Millennial & Minority-owned public opinion research firm in Washington, DC, HIT Strategies, released a new poll today on behalf of the Chicago Teachers Union that outlines enormous levels of support among Chicagoans for revenue strategies that increase taxes on large corporations instead of the alternative of increasing taxes on property owners or cutting education and other city services. An overwhelming 90% of Black and Latino Chicagoans would prefer to increase taxes on large corporations to address the city’s budget.
