Rahm, City Council ask Rauner to support Chicago’s sanctuary city status
Mayor Rahm Emanuel, newly sworn in Illinois comptroller Susana Mendoza, and most of the Chicago City Council sponsored a resolution asking Republican governor Bruce Rauner to support Chicago’s sanctuary city status. The legislation asks Rauner to publicly show “support for cities that welcome our undocumented family members and neighbors and condemn any effort to strip the city of Chicago of federal funding.” [Tribune]
