The Chicago Police & Fire committee had important work to do today: a new first responder bereavement leave policy, raising forced retirement age for cops, a COPA annual report. But they can't meet: Too many alders showed up on Zoom & not in person so the committee couldn't make quorum.

Chicago Aldermen show their work ethic!

Chicago aldermen make an average of $111,221 for a part-time job. And they don't even show up.

Nice work if you can get it.

We need to reduce the number of wards from 50 to 25. https://t.co/6YOShqto5Q
