Last update: 7 hours ago

CPS Budget Fight: A WBEZ analysis finds CPS high schools with mostly Latino students are losing the most classroom teachers under the proposed 2026-27 budget, with the board set to vote Thursday. School Safety Funding: CPS plans to cut Whole School Safety Plan funding at 54 high schools roughly in half, dropping $8.7M to $4M and staff from 80 to 42 as the district rolls out a new 2024 safety framework. Chicago Ballot Access: The Chicago Board of Elections removed a school board challenger from the ballot after signature objections, leaving District 10a voters with only the incumbent on the ballot. Elder Scam Protections: Gov. JB Pritzker signed a bipartisan package expanding court tools like temporary restraining orders and asset freezes to stop financial exploitation of seniors, plus added nursing home oversight. Immigration Enforcement Backlash: New reporting says Chicago citizenship approvals are on track to plunge more than 80% after late-2025 ICE raids. Legal Accountability in Illinois: An Illinois appeals court sanctioned an attorney in a Starbucks bias case for submitting AI-hallucinated citations. Child Exploitation Charges: Illinois AG Kwame Raoul announced charges against a Mascoutah High School food service worker accused of possessing child sexual abuse material. Workplace Pay Enforcement: Illinois found a Winnebago County solar contractor underpaid workers by more than $90,000 under prevailing wage rules.
