Program Overview

Ken Davis is joined by The Tribune’s John Byrne and Politico’s Natasha Korecki. They discuss the situation with state funding for schools and the impending effort to repeal Governor Rauner’s amendatory veto. They also tackle Cook County slate-making, which begins today, and the potential challenge to Toni Preckwinkle, whose popularity is falling as a result of the much-despised pop tax. Also on the agenda: Mayor Emanuel’s highly public defense of Chicago’s welcoming cities status, despite his record of being lukewarm to the rights of undocumented immigrants. This program was produced by Chicago Access Network Television (CAN TV).
