Tax Referendum is Back, Migrant Shelter Complaints, and Students Open Farm
Mar 08, 2024•32 min•Transcript available on Metacast Episode description
Votes for the Bring Chicago Home referendum will be counted. Earlier this week, an appellate court judge reversed a lower court ruling on the tax referendum that will increase a one-time tax on property sales over $1 million dollars to fund resources for unhoused Chicagoans. Host Jacoby Cochran, WBEZ’s Adriana Cardona-Maguigad, and Sun Times’ Tom Schuba discuss what the decision means for voters. Plus, complaints at the city’s migrant shelters are mounting, a controversial cop is running to be a judge, and students are growing fresh produce in Altgeld Gardens.
