Lightfoot and allies blocked a hearing for Bring Chicago Home ordinance
The Bring Chicago Home ordinance, which advocates want on the ballot for February’s citywide election, aims to fight homelessness.
In 2018, the Chicago Coalition for the Homeless proposed an ordinance that would tax home sales over $1 million at a higher rate in an effort to fight homelessness in Chicago. On Monday, Mayor Lightfoot and her allies in City Council blocked a hearing for that ordinance, known as Bring Chicago Home.
Reset breaks down what happened and what’s next with a grassroots leader and two alderpeople who sponsored the ordinance.
