$51M to Help Migrants, Officers Who Lied Kept Jobs, and New Fave Bars
Jun 02, 2023•28 min•Transcript available on Metacast Episode description
Alders on Wednesday approved $51 million in funding to help asylum-seekers in Chicago, but the City Council vote was contentious. Meanwhile, negotiations between Chicago and DuPage County over drinking water supply are also heating up as the west suburban county considers building its own pipeline to Lake Michigan. Chicago Tribune’s A.D. Quig and WCIU’s Brandon Pope join lead producer Simone Alicea to talk about those stories as well as a watchdog report on police officers who lied on the job and a new brewery coming to Bronzeville.
