Chicago Sun-Times: Mayor Johnson’s social media tax generating windfall of revenue amid legal challenge. “The social media tax was expected to raise $31 million during all of 2026. But the city collected $16.4 million during the first four months alone from the 10 companies to which the levy has applied.
