  • Joint Committee on Accountable Co-Governance Report
    Joint Committee on Accountable Co-Governance Membership Report APPROVED WEDS APR 14 On December 20, 2020, the United Working Families membership commissioned a joint committee of elected officials, party committee, and election committee members to engage in a process by which we would take up accountable co-governance. We engaged in this process after a 2020 budget vote resulted in 4 UWF Alders voting ‘yes’ when party lines were drawn and these electeds were asked by UWF to vote ‘no’. We held 6 meetings from February to April and a majority of participants were present at every meeting. We named why we were there using some of the following phrases: “we share the same north star,” “we cannot let rich and powerful special interests win,” “build power for grassroots folks,” “we need to learn how to co-govern,” “what we are doing here is a model for the country,” and “we learn and grow from accountability.” Our task was to engage in honest discussions that would identify lessons learned from the 2020 budget vote, acknowledge the harm that was caused by this vote, make commitments to change behavior, and create internal accountability processes with clear expectations moving forward that can help us maneuver situations such as this, as they are likely to happen again. We acknowledge that this process did not result in all of the answers we originally sought. We are committed to this undertaking and see this as a moment of growth and improvement. This report includes a summary of our six meetings intended for our members to review, discuss, and to vote on the recommended next steps.

  • People's Poverty Summit
    THE PEOPLE'S POVERTY SUMMIT Bold, Community-driven solutions to ending poverty in Chicago Grassroots and community organizations have been working on bold and visionary solutions to ending poverty by funding the resources communities need. We believe that solutions should come from and by poor people and we hope that we can work together on these broad, structural solutions that have already been introduced in City Council and Springfield...... OBAMA LIBRARY COMMUNITY BENEFITS AGREEMENT Halt rising rents and rampant gentrification by passing a CBA for Washington Park, Woodlawn, South Shore, and surrounding neighborhoods that would set aside 75% vacant lands for affordable housing for households between $25-$40K, provide dedicated TIF money towards affordable housing, invest in homeownership for people making $70K, and guarantee right of first offer for tenants. The Obama CBA Ordinance is sponsored by Aldermen Jeanette Taylor. For more information, call Alex Goldenberg at Southside Together for Power (STOP) at (773) 543.9153. R E A L E S T A T E T R A N S F E R T A X F O R H O M E L E S S N E S S Provide affordable housing and services to address homelessness by increasing the real estate transfer tax on high-end properties, and using a portion for a dedicated revenue to housing and wrap-around services while also helping to fill the budget deficit. Over 86,000 Chicagoans are currently experiencing homelessness, a majority of which are living in doubled up situations, and over 20,000 CPS students. Mayor Lori Lightfoot committed to this idea during her campaign and the current proposal has the support of over 35 members of the Illinois General Assembly.

  • Movement Alders Flip to Pass Austerity Budget
    Movement Alders Flip to Pass Austerity Budget City Council just approved Chicago mayor Lori Lightfoot’s antiworker austerity budget, with 29 voting in favor and 21 voting against it. Lightfoot’s property tax increase passed with a slightly narrower margin of 28 for, 22 against. A large but strange assemblage spanning from the left-wing Alderwoman Jeanette Taylor to the notoriously corrupt boss Alderman Ed Burke found themselves voting against the mayor’s budget together. Opposition to the budget came primarily from those opposed to the hike in property taxes and from those opposed to another nail in the coffin of working Chicago. Next year’s budget will be a combination of cutbacks, layoffs, and regressive tax hikes that will cause a great deal of pain for poor and working class people in Chicago. Notably, however, the budget makes hardly any concessions to the growing movement against racist police violence in Chicago and all over the country. Scores of activists have been organizing for months to defund the police in a context where cops take 40 percent of the city’s annual operating budget. That’s millions of dollars for repression and punishment that would be much better spent on schools, social workers, medical care, and jobs programs. Lightfoot’s budget, however, brushes aside these demands and keeps the status quo intact. As Lightfoot recently put it: “I have been very clear that I do not support defunding police. And I also reject the false narrative that it’s either fund the police or fund the community.” Chicagoans disagree, however: in arecent survey (conducted by the mayor’s office no less), 84 percent of respondents said they want the CPD to be defunded.

  • An April 20 Letter to the Mayor
    CITY OF CHICAGO CITY COUNCIL April 20, 2020 VIA E-MAIL: [email protected] Honorable Lori Lightfoot Mayor, City of Chicago 121 N. LaSalle Street, 5th Floor Chicago, IL 60602 RE: Emergency Powers Ordinance Amendments Dear Mayor Lightfoot: We, the undersigned Aldermen, write to propose necessary provisions to the Emergency Powers Ordinance, which you seek passage of at the Wednesday, April 22, 2020. We believe these provisions will ensure that Chicago’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic prioritizes the most vulnerable and hardest hit communities, particularly Black and Brown communities on the West Side and South Side, and will ensure that we govern in an inclusive, transparent, and democratic manner that is consistent with our shared values. Therefore, we seek the inclusion of the following provisions in the Emergency Powers Ordinance: ● City Council Oversight : The proposed ordinance, as written, currently appears to grant the Budget Director unilateral authority to rewrite the City’s approved budget without the inclusion of oversight of City Council. This language should be amended to ensure proper City Council oversight for any proposed or attempted alterations of the budget. An amendment to Article 1, Section 1 of the ordinance will be required to provide the City Council the proper and deserved oversight authority it requires to fulfill its duties as the City’s legislative body. This amendment further includes a prioritization of debt funding from the Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) of the Federal Reserve’s Municipal Liquidity Facility (MLF) in order to reduce long-term borrowing costs for the City by prioritizing lower cost debt financing via the Federal Reserve.
