🚨NEW: Chicago Teachers Union president @stacydavisgates paid off her past-due bills after our team filed a FOIA with the city's finance department, following up on our November story. Records show she paid 2 days before the dept asked for an extension. illinoispolicy.org/chicago-teache…
Joining @WGNTV live at 6:30 to discuss the new @illinoispolicy report on speed cameras ⬇️
Bears’ lakefront stadium wishlist would bring taxpayers’ cumulative tab on Guaranteed Rate Field, Soldier Field and a new dome to almost $7 billion chicago.suntimes.com/bears/bears-st… w/@fspielman
The CTU, where Johnson cut his teeth as an organizer, declined comment, even though president Stacy Davis Gates and VP Jackson Potter attended the Bears news conference. Potter and the union have previously spoken out against publicly financing stadiums. chicagotribune.com/2024/04/28/chi…
NEW POLL: “Overall, how would you rate Mayor Brandon Johnson’s performance as Chicago’s mayor?” 📊 Results CHICAGO RESIDENTS Above average: 9% Below average: 50% Ten times more Chicago residents rate Johnson’s performance as “very low” (30%) compared to “very high” (3%). ⬇️…
🚨NEW: Chicago Teachers Union VP @jacksonpCTU steered $4 million in union funds to his mom's law firm. He has for four years refused to provide a financial audit upon members' request despite internal CTU rules requiring him to do so. illinoispolicy.org/chicago-teache…
Never forget.
Candidate Brandon Johnson was asked whether the Bears should receive a $2 billion public subsidy to build a new stadium. His answer was no. Here’s what he said ⬇️ "Let me be clear: I want the Bears to stay. But Chicago could also use $2 billion to remove lead pipes, house…

So @stacydavisgates and @jacksonpCTU were at the Bears announcement today in support of the stadium plan. Let’s take a look back at their previous statements… 🤔 Now that their guy is in office it looks like they’ve suddenly become supporters of publicly-funded stadiums.…
Unbelievable. The Chicago Teachers Union appears to be lining up behind Mayor Brandon Johnson’s demand for a massive public subsidy for the Chicago Bears, while telling Springfield that Chicago Public Schools are underfunded.
Unbelievable. The Chicago Teachers Union appears to be lining up behind Mayor Brandon Johnson’s demand for a massive public subsidy for the Chicago Bears, while telling Springfield that Chicago Public Schools are underfunded.
Gov. Pritzker continues to say he's "highly skeptical," and Speaker Welch just said a vote on the new Bears proposal in Springfield right now would "fail, and it would fail miserably. There's no environment for something like this today." chicago.suntimes.com/bears/2024/04/…
@Austin__Berg The property taxes alone on a $2.75B stadium would be about $110M per year. 57.5% of property taxes go to schools. Because it’s publicly owned, the revenue will be $0. That’s $63.25M per year taken from schools and given to billionaires. Congrats on selling out @CTULocal1.
The Chicago Teachers Union wants a 9% floor on annual pay hikes. What other employees in America are likely to get such a sweetheart deal? @illinoispolicy breaks down the CTU's demands:
🚨NEW: Zero students are proficient in reading and math at the school where the Chicago Teachers Union held its press conference to kick off contract negotiations. CTU's "sustainable community schools" consistently underperform. They want 180 more. illinoispolicy.org/chicago-teache…
.@chicagotribune editorial: With so much confusion (some perhaps deliberate) around the IL House's overwhelming vote on Chicago schools last week, bottom line was it was an extraordinary vote of no confidence in @ChicagosMayor chicagotribune.com/2024/04/22/edi…

Several Chicago alderperson and other notables in the room for the Chicago Bears stadium presentation: Walter Burnett, Lamont Robinson, Pat Dowell, Kam Buckner. Stacy Davis Gates, Chicago Teachers Union president, is also here #twill
@Austin__Berg The property taxes alone on a $2.75B stadium would be about $110M per year. 57.5% of property taxes go to schools. Because it’s publicly owned, the revenue will be $0. That’s $63.25M per year taken from schools and given to billionaires. Congrats on selling out @CTULocal1.
The Chicago Teachers Union wants a 9% floor on annual pay hikes. What other employees in America are likely to get such a sweetheart deal? @illinoispolicy breaks down the CTU's demands:
Yia Yia, our Great Matriarch and the rock of our family, turns 95 years and going strong. She’s welcomed three new great grandchildren over the last year and a half.
So turns out CTU’s president, Stacy Davis Gates, lied to the public - shocking! CTU is asking for an absurd minimum 9% pay raise every year. That will double all member salaries in 8 years. Do these people understand the city and state have no money and taxes are already high?
NEW: Chicago Teachers Union President Stacy Davis Gates told @fspielman that the union’s demand for annual pay raises is 9% or inflation, whichever is *less.* But that’s not what the union’s contract demands say. Leaked documents from the CTU show they are demanding whichever…
CTU just did a big song and dance about being transparent with negotiations. This is a perfect time for them to release their documents so the public can see for themselves #twill #frontyard

Matt Paprocki is the President & CEO of the Illinois Policy Institute. He is a strong advocate for work as an avenue to escape poverty - recognizing that current anti-work government policies have made poverty more bearable without actually addressing root causes.
WATCH NOW: Today the Work and Welfare Subcommittee is in Chicago, IL to hear how work lifts Americans out of poverty. Our welfare programs should incentivize people to work as a job is the best anti-poverty program that exists. x.com/i/broadcasts/1…

HEY!! ACTUALLY GOOD!!!
Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson deserves serious praise for the pro-growth housing and commercial development agenda released today. Great, actionable ideas. Evidence-based. Clear goals and accountability. More of this please! Very odd that it was dropped on a Friday.
