GOP Congressman Says Chicago May Need National Guard If Looting Continues – WTTW (Chicago)

Rep. Rodney Davis said, “At the same time cities are asking Congress to provide a bailout for local sales tax revenue shortfalls how in the world can we be OK with a big driver of local sales tax revenue in the Magnificent Mile being destroyed on a regular basis?” Rep. Raja Krishnamoorthi, a Democrat, cautioned, “We just don’t want a situation like Portland where federal involvement would be independent of what the local authorities are doing. But this type of criminality has to stop.”

Neither Rodney or Raja represent any portion of the city of Chicago.
They should mind their own business. ?

The 8th Congressional District was remapped out of Chicago, way back in 1993. ?
