Chicago Tonight: The Week in Review: 5/25
On this edition of Chicago Tonight: The Week in Review with Joel Weisman, U.S. Attorney Patrick Fitzgerald steps down. Chicago Police are praised for handling NATO protests, despite tense moments at Sunday’s rally. Mayor Rahm Emanuel insists the NATO summit was a benefit for the city, but businesses beg to differ. Chicago teachers mobilize en masse, saying they’re ready to strike. And lawmakers are betting once again on gambling expansion, despite Gov. Pat Quinn’s veto threat.
