Johnson weighs in on City issues at Freedom, Dreams and Chicago Futures Forum – WGNTV (Chicago)

Mayor Brandon Johnson explained how using the City’s guaranteed income program will help his administration center plans and initiatives for the formerly incarcerated population. “We have to reshape the conversation of those who are formerly incarcerated, because many of the individuals who suffered trauma and disinvestment were then penalized for the manifestation of the trauma that was imposed on them.”

“Johnson also explained how using the City’s guaranteed income program will help his administration center plans and initiatives for the formerly incarcerated population.” WTH is this dude talking about? He isn’t smart enough to know that if you chase out the majority of the actual tax payers and you chase away tourism and business in the City…there is no “revenue” for him to spend on his “programs”. Perhaps this guy should focus on making the City safe and protect businesses…then he can “get his money”. What an absolute joke.

Kamala Harris would be proud of the quotes in this article, both from the mayor and the attendees. Word salads for everyone!
