    Chicago’s Evolving City Council Chicago City Council Report #9 June 17, 2015 – March 29, 2017 Authored By: Dick Simpson Maureen Heffern Ponicki Allyson Nolde Thomas J. Gradel University of Illinois at Chicago Department of Political Science May 17, 2017 2 Since Mayor Rahm Emanuel and the new Chicago City Council were sworn in two years ago, there have been 67 divided roll call votes or roughly three per month. A divided roll call vote is not unanimous because at least one or more aldermen votes against the mayor and his administration. The rate of divided roll call votes – twice the rate in Emanuel’s first four year term – combined with an increase in the number of aldermen voting against the mayor – are indications that the aldermen are becoming more independent. Clearly, the city council is less of a predictable “rubber stamp” than it was during Mayor Richard M. Daley’s 22 years and Emanuel’s first four year term from 2011-2015. However, this movement away from an absolute rubber stamp is small and city council is only glacially evolving. The increase in aldermanic independence is confirmed by a downward trend in the vote agreement with the mayor, with only five aldermen voting with him 100% of the time and another 22 voting with him 90%. The number of aldermen voting with the mayor less than 90% of the time on divided votes has risen to 23 over the last two years. Aldermen are also more willing to produce their own legislation and proposed solutions to critical city problems than in the past rather than wait for, or to clear their proposals with, the 5th floor.

  • From Rubber Stamp to a Divided City Council Chicago City Council Report #11 June 12, 2019 – April 24, 2020
    From Rubber Stamp to a Divided City Council Chicago City Council Report #11 June 12, 2019 – April 24, 2020 Authored By: Dick Simpson Marco Rosaire Rossi Thomas J. Gradel University of Illinois at Chicago Department of Political Science April 28, 2020 The Chicago Municipal Elections of 2019 sent earthquake-like tremors through the Chicago political landscape. The biggest shock waves caused a major upset in the race for Mayor. Chicago voters rejected Toni Preckwinkle, President of the Cook County Board President and Chair of the Cook County Democratic Party. Instead they overwhelmingly elected former federal prosecutor Lori Lightfoot to be their new Mayor. Lightfoot is a black lesbian woman and was a partner in a major downtown law firm. While Lightfoot had been appointed head of the Police Board, she had never previously run for any political office. More startling was the fact that Lightfoot received 74 % of the vote and won all 50 Chicago's wards. In the same elections, Chicago voters shook up and rearranged the Chicago City Council. seven incumbent Aldermen lost their seats in either the initial or run-off elections. A total of 12 new council members were victorious and were sworn in on May 20, 2019 along with the new Mayor. The new aldermen included five Socialists, five women, three African Americans, five Latinos, two council members who identified as LGBT, and one conservative Democrat who formally identified as an Independent. Before, the victory parties and swearing-in ceremonies were completed, politically interested members of the general public, politicians, and the news media began speculating about how the relationship between the new Mayor and the new city council would play out.

  • Rahm Emanuel's Rubber Stamp City Council
    Rahm Emanuel’s Rubber Stamp City Council Chicago City Council Report #7 June 8, 2011- November 15, 2014 Authored By: Beyza Buyuker Melissa Mouritsen Dick Simpson University of Illinois at Chicago Department of Political Science December 9, 2014 By Thanksgiving 2014, more than 250 candidates had filed to run for alderman as had ten mayoral candidates. The city council approved Mayor Rahm Emanuel’s $7.3 billion budget with $62.4 million in tax increases by a vote of 46-4 and the following week approved an ordinance to raise the minimum wage to 13 on hour by 2019. At the same time, three aldermen called upon the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Chicago Inspector General, and the city comptroller to investigate potentially illegal campaign contributions to Mayor Emanuel from financial firms that manage city pension funds. As the 2015 elections loom, it is a time of both controversy and strong mayoral control of the city council. Despite signs of occasional controversy and opposition, the city council under Mayor Rahm Emanuel has remained a rubber stamp. Mayor Emanuel has recently lost some support compared to his first two years as the council has had more frequent divided roll call votes. Nonetheless, it continues as a rubber stamp council. In fact, for his entire three and a half years under Mayor Emanuel it has remained more of a rubber stamp than under either Mayors Richard J. or Richard M. Daley. Histograms of voting behavior show that the city council in the last two years under the Mayor Emanuel was more likely to disagree with mayor than during his first two years.

    SENT ELECTRONICALLY VIA EMAIL Honorable Lori Lightfoot Mayor, City of Chicago 121 North LaSalle Street, 5th Floor Chicago, Illinois 60602 Dr. Janice Jackson Chief Executive Officer, Chicago Public Schools 42 West Madison Street Chicago, Illinois 60602 January 3, 2021 Dear Mayor Lightfoot and Dr. Jackson: As elected representatives of our communities—and many of us CPS parents ourselves—we appreciate that our public schools are a critical provider of social services for young Chicagoans, and that COVID-19 has posed unique and significant challenges for our most vulnerable students that will be felt for years to come. We recognize that educators worked tirelessly to make remote learning last semester as enriching as possible for students, and understand the stress that this learning environment places on many working families, as parents simultaneously juggle childcare and work responsibilities. However, we are deeply concerned that Chicago Public Schools’ current plan for students and staff to return to school buildings does not meet the district’s objective of increasing equity for students, and fails to adequately address a number of safety concerns identified by parents, students, and staff in light of the ongoing pandemic. During an October briefing for elected officials, CPS discussed enrollment data showing a lack of online engagement from our city’s most vulnerable students. CPS also pointed to survey data indicating that parents of African American and Latino students conveyed a strong interest in enrolling their students in in-person learning. But CPS’s current reopening plan has not won the confidence of many of these parents. In the most recent CPS survey, less than a quarter of CPS families opted for in-person learning.

  • AIDS Foundation of Chicago
    May 5, 2003 The Honorable Richard M. Daley Office of the Mayor 121 N. LaSalle, Room 507 Chicago, IL 60602 Re: Responding to the City’s HIV/AIDS Crisis Dear Mayor Daley: We are writing to urge you to provide an increase of $1 million in city corporate funds to the Chicago Department of Public Health for community-based HIV prevention programs in the 2004 budget. Although the AIDS epidemic has been steadily increasing in Chicago, city support for AIDS services has not kept pace with the need. Since 1997, corporate funds devoted to HIV prevention have declined 8% while the number of reported AIDS cases in the City has increased 21%. There are now an estimated 22,000 Chicagoans living with HIV, many of whom do not know that they are infected The epidemic continues to exact a heavy toll on people of color. African-Americans, who account for approximately 36% of the City’s total population, account for 66% of recently diagnosed adult AIDS cases and 64% of recently diagnosed HIV cases, and the AIDS rate in Chicago among Puerto Ricans (26 per 100,000 residents) is second only to the AIDS rate among African-Americans (41 per 100,000 residents). Similar statistics prompted Baltimore’s mayor to declare a “state of emergency” in the fight against AIDS and step up that city’s commitment to this cause. In Chicago, we should do no less. Contributing to this crisis is a disturbing trend that warns of continued growth in the epidemic. Syphilis, which like HIV is spread by unprotected sex, has become more prevalent in Chicago and across the nation.

  • BARACK OBAMA and the 2004 ILLINOIS SENATE RACE by John S. Jackson Visiting Professor an Occasional Pape
    THE MAKING OF A SENATOR: BARACK OBAMA AND THE 2004 ILLINOIS SENATE RACE By John S. Jackson Visiting Professor An Occasional Paper Of the Paul Simon Public Policy Institute Southern Illinois University Carbondale, Illinois August, 2006 The Making of a Senator: Barack Obama And the 2004 Illinois Senate Race by John S. Jackson Introduction The 2004 U.S. Senate race in Illinois may prove to be one of the most significant in American history. Perhaps not since the Senate election of 1858, when Stephen Douglas defeated Abraham Lincoln, has one Senate election had such an impact on the national leadership cadre. Although Lincoln lost the election, his speeches and debates with Douglas over slavery and the future of the Union ensured his place as a national leader of the young Republican Party and then as a leading contender for the Republican nomination in 1860 (Goodman, 2005). Although Barack Obama is one of one hundred Senators, and a freshman at that, he has quickly become a much sought after speaker, and his influence has spread far beyond the usual parameters for a first-term Senator. Obama is the first African-American male Senator to be elected since Edward Brooke of Massachusetts. He is the second African- American elected to the Senate from Illinois following former Senator Carol Moseley Braun, who was elected in 1992 and then defeated in 1998 (Kenney and Hartley, 2003, 203-209). With the exception of the post Civil War Reconstruction Era, Brooke, Braun, and now Obama are the only three popularly elected African-American Senators in American history.
