Children at my son’s Spanish immersion preschool in Chicago bore witness to a teacher being violently assaulted by ICE agents who entered their school, armed with weapons, earlier this month. Miss Diana was abducted by ICE on the morning of November 5 as she prepared to start her shift for the day.

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.
Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

“But while New York is deciding to part ways with a tradition that has held back affordable housing, the recent fight over ADUs is an example of Chicago doubling down on it.”
map shows that tradition in action, there are so many different sets of rules for homeowners based on who your alder is

Allowing CPD to spend unlimited sums of taxpayer money is a “crazy way to run a city,” said Justin Marlowe, a professor in the University of Chicago Harris School of Public Policy, and the director of the Center for Municipal Finance.
The Chicago Police Department spent more than its City Council-approved budget in five of the last six years, costing Chicago taxpayers more than $501.2 million in unanticipated expenses, records show.

As many eyes will be on court downtown today, there are early indications ICE may be active in this area again.
Agents reportedly snatched a daycare worker in Roscoe Village this morning.

ICE/CBP is active in Lincoln Park right now, has been spotted near Damen/Clybourn at Costco + Jewel (this is in addition to a morning abduction reported at Costco earlier).
People believe grocery delivery drivers are being targeted and are asking folks to alert other vulnerable workers as well.

Seems to us that there's a big difference between Ald. Waguespack's initial claim that Mayor Johnson has been *hiding the EY report from him and the public* and the new line that he's seen it, but would like to be briefed on it.

We urge Ald. Waguespack to reconsider his position - asking corporations to chip in more is the alternative to taxing families or painful layoffs. Contact him and let him know that if tough decisions are to be made, he should make the ones that benefit families and workers.
