Tax Referendum is Back, Migrant Shelter Complaints, and Students Open Farm

Votes for the Bring Chicago Home referendum will be counted. Earlier this week, an appellate court judge reversed a lower court ruling on the tax referendum that will increase a one-time tax on property sales over $1 million dollars to fund resources for unhoused Chicagoans. Host Jacoby Cochran, WBEZ’s Adriana Cardona-Maguigad, and Sun Times’ Tom Schuba discuss what the decision means for voters. Plus, complaints at the city’s migrant shelters are mounting, a controversial cop is running to be a judge, and students are growing fresh produce in Altgeld Gardens.
