Chicago’s mayor will participate in TRiiBE Tuesday: A Town Hall with Mayor Lori E. Lightfoot, a virtual event co-hosted by the Institute for Nonprofit News and the “Lens on Lightfoot” partners, on Tuesday, Sept 29 at 6 p.m. 
 
The BGA’s Alejandra Cancino will join our partners in this collaboration in questioning the mayor about her administration’s actions.

 Since taking office in 2019, Mayor Lori E. Lightfoot has made big promises, difficult decisions and faced unprecedented circumstances. During her inauguration speech, Lightfoot promised to invest in schools, improve safety for every neighborhood, and address Chicago’s history of corruption in politics.
 
But some residents of Chicago question her progress so far: Is she still committed to delivering on some of the proposed progressive reform policies and actions she spoke about?
 
You can hear from Lightfoot herself as she takes questions from reporters and the public in this free online event.
