Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot on Wednesday proposed an ordinance giving the office of the mayor an annual inflation raise capped at 5%.

Lightfoot currently takes in an annual salary of $209,915, a sum that would rise to $216,210 as of May 22, 2023, according to the ordinance. The proposal would allow the mayor's salary to increase up to 5% each year, with a stipulation that the mayor could opt out of the raise.

The proposed raise comes as Lightfoot has faced a stream of heated criticism for her handling of violent crime in her city, which has increased 37% compared to 2021.

Promotions are earned. Inflation raises are pretty standard at most decent places to work.

lol starting a new thread to whine about a $7K pay bump, things must be going really well for you, ducks.

I think everyone should receive cost of living adjustments as a matter of course.

I totally agree with this.

If your job is not providing this, I would find a place that appreciates you a little more.

If you ask for a raise from your bosses and they give you a raise, you earned it.

Whether you think she deserves it or not is a different matter
