Week in Review: City Budget Battle; Bears Suggest Indiana Move

Alderpeople are in the driver’s seat as they move forward with passing a rival budget plan. Mayor Brandon Johnson says he has grave concerns about the plan — but hasn’t yet decided whether he’ll veto it.

Chicago-area residents, including Evanston Mayor Daniel Biss, confront Border Patrol chief Greg Bovino as he makes his return to the area.

State officials celebrate as Gov. JB Pritzker officially signs a transit overhaul into law.

Meanwhile, Illinois Republicans urge President Donald Trump to reject a pardon request from disgraced former state House Speaker Michael Madigan.

The city’s watchdog says the Chicago Police Department isn’t properly tracking officers’ disciplinary histories.

And the Bears threaten to move (again) — this time to Northwest Indiana.
