Just for clarity: teachers are not being paid right now. They are not collecting unemployment or being βpaid to stay home.β Locked out teachers are not being paid and some teachers have told me they have been unable to use their health insurance because they show up as βinactiveβ

THIS IS MY POLITICAL ACCOUNT: It doesnβt represent the views of the city & city resources not used to maintain it. #TreatmentNotTrauma
- Chicago stands in solidarity with Palestine.The Chicago march for justice in Palestine is absolutely enormous
00:00 - A reminder that Kyle Rittenhouse carried an AR-15. He killed two people. He was given water by police and heβs still alive.
- All we have available is repression, punishment and surveillance. There is no other plan. There is no empathy for pain and no plan to manage grief. There is police and there is military and there are guns, tasers, rubber bullets tear gas and cages. We deserve so much better.BREAKING: @GovPritzker has activated the Illinois National Guard at the request of Mayor Lori Lightfoot "to support the Chicago Police Department with a verdict expected in the trial of Derek Chauvin," the former Minneapolis Police officer charged with the death of George Floyd.
- I am at 51st and Wentworth station. After over 3 hours, lawyers were able to talk to Jennifer Pagan and Damon Williams. In every police station in the city, every person arrested is being denied access to counsel. This is a violation of the consent decree.
- They were let in. No one believes for a second that they couldnβt be stopped.
- Update: The locker has been removed and there willl be no further installations of Amazon lockers on any parks until there is a review of the process. I am still waiting to receive the contractual agreement between Amazon and the Chicago Parks District.
- π§΅A few things that didnβt make it in the article. 1. Amazon should not be occupying public space regardless of what they offer but we have to note that 137K is a slap in the face. 2.Corps like Amazon that donβt pay taxes impact our ability to fund public services, like parks.The Park District will get no more than $137,600 for allowing Amazon delivery lockers in public parks for a year, its contract shows. buff.ly/3sHHgrT
- Rich ppl crying rn. They tried so hard but Chicago donβt quit. This is a union town. GTFOH with that hate and privatization schemes. We ready to work alongside Brandon for a city that cares for everyone.
- Sen. @BernieSanders was the first presidential candidate to stand with our teachers and school staff as they prepared to go on strike in Chicago. For this and many other reasons, I'm proud to stand with him. #NotMeUs #Bernie2020
- Hey Chicago, do us a favor. If you see cops anywhere in the city not wearing masks, go to this link and file a complaint with the office of the Inspector General. Give as much info as possible. It will help us make them comply. igchicago.org/contact-us/repβ¦Why are officers still not wearing masks? WHY!!!!! 11.8% COVID19 positivity rate. 1,461 daily cases and going up. This shouldnβt be hard. This is public safety. @ChicagosMayor @ChiefDavidBrown @Chicago_Police
- Around 25k people marched today in Chicago to protest Israelβs genocide of Palestinians #FreePalestine
00:00 - π§΅Anthony Alvarez didnβt deserve to die. He deserved a good dignified life and to watch his baby grow. But Chicago Police killed him and now heβs not here. This kind of brutality doesnβt make us safe. It breaks families and communities. Police canβt be our public safety strategy.
- Itβs Fred Hamptonβs birthday today and a reminder that solidarity and class struggle are the only way out. We need each other. Thank you Chairman for the revolutionary map. Happy heavenly birthday.
