On foot, by text, and over the phone, hundreds of CTU members connected with thousands of voters – Chicago Teachers Union

A CTU family of mother, father and baby in carriage pose for a group selfie holdin a Brandon Johnson sign. "In recent weeks, CTU members fanned out across the city — on foot and electronically — to make the case to thousands of voters about the importance of investing in schools, housing the unhoused, health care, effective public transportation, LGBTQ+ rights, and environmental protections.... It’s no exaggeration to say that our power, in coalition with our powerful movement organizations, is mobilizing and energizing the entire city."

Did the CTU minions spread the word about BJ’s proposed 3.5% city income tax and his financial transaction proposal? Ken Griffin escaped just in time, now the rest of us need to do the same.

Not BJ’s fault that taxes must be raised big time. Huge overly generous pensions must be paid by the taxpayers. This MUST BE PAID, and Ken Griffen just took over $200,000,000 tax revenue with him. 😊 😊 😊 😊 😊 😊 😊 😊 😊 😊 😊 😊 😊 😊 😊 😊 😊 😊 😊

The cheerleaders for every lunatic progressive idea hard at work stealing the pensioners’ retirement funds. No worries, the pension money is guaranteed, so the CTU can have their cake and eat it too. Life is good. If only people would stop bothering them about reading and math scores…
Brandon Johnson for Mayor, Randi Weingarten for President!

Mark Glennon on AM560’s Morning Answer: Chicago pension buyout plan mostly shifts debt rather than eliminating it, property tax surge doubles inflation over three decades

Chicago’s political leadership is floating a pension buyout program as evidence it is seriously addressing the city’s thirty-six-billion-dollar unfunded pension liability, but Mark Glennon, founder of the Illinois policy research organization Wirepoints, said that the proposal moves debt from one column to another rather than reducing it, and that the broader fiscal picture facing the city continues to deteriorate across every measurable dimension.
