The prospect of having voters weigh in on the city’s flood response instead of its sanctuary city status incensed some City Council members, who want to see the latter put up for a public vote as tensions have boiled over regarding the city’s support of more than 20,000 migrants who have arrived since last year. “We just want to make sure that we get the Bring Chicago Home question on the ballot after all the work that we have done,” Ald. Maria Hadden said.
A largely unasked question is becoming glaring: Is Illinois doing all it should to use artificial intelligence to make government cost less and work better? So far, the evidence says no.
