He believes the loss of revenue is to a tune much greater than what a pied-\u00e0-terre tax will collect. <\/p>\n<p>Trump&#8217;s attention on the new tax comes only a day after a state court judge ordered a temporary block. <\/p>\n<p>A judge on Staten Island issued a temporary restraining order that stops the Mamdani administration from moving forward with the\u00a0pied-\u00e0-terre tax plan\/ Melissa Russo has more details.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Mayor Zohran Mamdani has found himself in the hot seat throughout the tax&#8217;s rollout as New Yorkers decried his administration&#8217;s communication. In turn, the mayor pushed back a deadline, allowing New Yorkers an extra month to prove whether or not their property is exempt. <\/p>\n<p>The pied-a-terre tax, championed jointly by the mayor and Gov. Kathy Hochul as a tax on second homes valued at more than $5 million, could impact less than 20,000 part-time residents. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"President Donald Trump is setting up another showdown with New York.
