Editorial: Legislature will own Chicago’s school failures if a bad plan for an elected board prevails – Chicago Sun-Times*

"If property taxes go up to pay for the schools, blame those in the state Senate who voted Tuesday to create an absurdly unwieldy 21-member elected Chicago school board. And blame, as well, anybody in the House who votes later this summer for this slapped-together mockery of supposedly grassroots democracy."

Yea! Somebody new to blame!! Lori is objecting but secretly celebrating. When Chicago schools decline further with shootings and brawls at school board meetings. Lori can simply blame the idiot legislature that’s too dump to step away from a falling building.
