People are considering banning participants on January 6 of the city's jobs.
Here with all of that and more is our spotlight.
The Politics Team had Sharon and Nick Bloomberg.
Welcome to support, even Heather, the focus of mayor Johnson's efforts to build more affordable housing facing a major test tomorrow in the city council.
What makes this suggestion unique?
Well, this will lead to the establishment of a non -profit organization run by the city to fund these projects mainly.
Therefore, it is a new approach to financing the affordable housing that would play the city more directly in giving these units that were created before the city really operates from the tax credits of federal income and a kind of delivery developed with a kind of smaller subsidies from cities and may help them to borrow money from banks or private stock funds.
In the sense that the city will undertake this main role in an attempt to help finance these developments and they will do this as part of the 1.0, 2 and 5 billion bond reviews a year ago.
This proposal will take $ 135 million of this and only use it to create this new development company.
Any insight about how it with all people tomorrow?
These are the details.
Now the general measurement has been approved as part of this approved borrowing a year ago.
But it will be a real test of the mayor.
We have seen a lot of reporting his tense relationship with the elderly.
So it will really be a chance for the mayor to show that she can not only make promises, but also fill the details and get this through the city council.
So public transit workers in Springfield were today.
Chairman of the Transport Committee on Friday in the Senate.
What was the gathering today?
Well, this is a group of more than 30 labor organizations.
They support an effort describing United.
We move.
This is an attempt to reform governance for the public transport system here in the northeast of Illinois.
It will stop this type of wholesale integration that we have seen as a proposal for various buses and railway systems.
>> But this will include, as you know, that this is newly enabled, as you know, in the form of roads and transportation, as you know, change all kinds of questions about, as you know, that the formation of these different systems, as you know, can address some of the structural issues that you really hear from legislators.
It was a very clear message that we know that you have this financial shelf $ 770 million next year.
But we will not come with money unless we see some of these governance reforms.
Therefore, of course, this is an attempt to preserve the bill to move forward.
There was a day pressure about a month ago.
But this session, as you know, the end of the session will appear within a few weeks.
As you know, the transit organizations, as you know, the action organizations that support them are really concerned that they may only see the passage of reform reform in the spring session, but they will not have certainty and financing until this veto is heading in the fall, which I think is causing a lot of burning at least until we see where it involves.
As you know, today only, the RTA chair, Kirk Dellard had, as you know, and in Tribune, saying, as you know, listen, the state does not make its share.
The state does not finance public transport in the way it deserves, definitely the former legislator Dellard, the force of an attempt to pressure the general lawmakers.
We'll see where this goes.
Well, we know that you will write it to us.
Heather, you are focusing this week on a major change in how to bring criminal weapons cases to the Southside police areas in particular.
>> Why is this change from Cook's state lawyer Eileen O'Neill?
Bert Weiss was controversial.
I heard from many elderly people this week that there are fears that it creates the justice system from two levels.
So, if you are arrested and the police want to accuse you of having weapons in a felony anywhere other than the England police area or the Kalumite police area, which is Rosland on the southern south of the city.
These charges must be approved by the assistant state lawyer before you start reaching the legal process.
But in these two regions, Chicago police lieutenant only must sign these charges before they are submitted.
This, I mean, Burke says it is an important change, a kind of simplified efforts to return the police to the street.
She has full support for police supervisor Larry Sinling, however, at the Chicago Police Department under the Federal Court of Reform itself after decades of violations and other problems.
Therefore, there are real questions about whether it makes sense to give some authority more power to the police administration, which only extends with 9 % of this court order.
Now, mayor Brandon Johnson, I asked him about that week.
He said that it is worth trying while there are a lot of people asking whether this is the correct step even as the crime continues, as it increased in all areas in Chicago, along with other cities across the country.
One of these people, in addition to the aldemeran you are talking about or the other people you are talking about is that the general defender of Cook province raised some concerns when they are very strong.
Mitchell highlighted the fact that even if you are only arrested and directed an insertion that has not been brought to trial, it may have a profound impact on people's lives.
You can lose your work.
You can lose your housing.
You can a kind of child custody.
He said it does not make sense to reduce the burden to bring these charges to the police areas where 85 % of the population is black.
We know that Chicago has faced a kind of problems related to regular racism.
Now even the elderly who support this program say why they do not offer it?
Citywide?
We will have to see what is happening, of course, there are well -reported contacts that the delay in the Cook Cook Courts system can be arrested and taken to prison.
And if they do not have the financial means to go out, they can stay behind bars for some time while waiting, as you know, their case must be resolved, whether it is, you know, the settlement is concerned.
What can you have this, as you know, to Heather's point about what Mitchell General defender said.
>> It will be a very long process.
If you do not have the means or anyone, as you know, do not have the means that bring you out.
>> Also to vote tomorrow, Heather is a procedure that would exclude anyone who participated in the Capitol riot on January 6 from work in the city.
Why is the city council steps?
Well, if you remember one of the first things, the ruler JB Pritzker did after President Donald Trump took office to issue an executive order saying, hey, if you are arrested and guided by his charge and convicted, then pardoned the participation of Capitol on January 6, you cannot work in the state of Illinois.
Mayor Brandon Johnson has not soon followed and an executive case similar to the city's employees.
So this is the city council led by Aldurman Matt Martin enters to say in reality, we believe this is the right way to go.
He faces his first test tomorrow.
I think this is especially important because, of course, one of these people who forgive President Donald Trump, the former Chicago police who are right.
And that.
But the mayor supported the ruler, although nothing of his own is issued.
Did you know, many people told me that this was not rational, right?
Every day we hear somewhat from the mayor how terrible President Donald Trump is for the Chicago people.
It is not clear, I think many people are why this executive was not released.
Of course, Nick, this comes in the wake of tens of thousands of people who meet on Saturday in Chicago and across the city that occurred in the city throughout the state here throughout the state.
I mean, there were people in, as you know, Rockford in Arlington Heights, in Gourney, as you know, throughout the country.
There are these demonstrations in all 50 cases, and this type of hands is what they call this movement.
As you know, many local organizers said that this was the largest anti -Trump demonstration that they have seen long ago, of course, it now has a flavor to be counter.
Elon Musk.
>> But, as you know, a really wide cross section of the people who helped organize this to collect this in the advocates of the grandfather, environmental activists, and the people who, as you know, are concerned about the influence of abortion, reproductive rights, and society, of course, and the question here is always at work in making more work, and it is one of the organizations that helped to do so, you do not know that.
They say that this type of next step is how to make sure that this is not just people in the streets who express their anger and frustration?
But how you can direct this to something that has an effect on the current state of policy, as you know, in the nation.
Before we go for another week, another deputy on criminal charges yesterday.
>> The bribery of the Senator in the state, Emile Jones.
3rd ongoing.
These accusations have been suspended since 2022.
>> He mentioned that Senator Jones was among the people who fell into the red camera scandal that was exposed to some politicians on its way.
He was on a tape claiming to accept a bribe of $ 5,000 from the CEO of the Red Light Camera in addition to a job for a person who was trying, as you know, helps that it is certain that it is an interesting time, as you know, as we talked with the trial of Mike Madi with what calls for 4 weak courts.
I think this is something that defense lawyers are very hoping.
They also hope that they can draw this CEO who cooperated with the FBI has no choir, a person should not be listened to.
You
