Checked by PolitiFact30 Sep 2020United StatesPolitics and government
Debbie Mucarsel-Powell, U.S. Rep., D-Fla.

“Says Miami-Dade Mayor Carlos Gimenez “approved a 67% pay raise for himself and increased his own pension. He makes $250,000 a year, more than almost every big-city Mayor in the country. He also kept his taxpayer-funded Mercedes-Benz after slashing $400 million in government jobs and spending.”

PolitiFact rated this: Half True

PolitiFact says: While Gimenez was a county commissioner about a decade ago, he had a car allowance for a Mercedes-Benz. When he became mayor he took over the lease personally.
