In order to meet their One Billion Dollar Budget deficit, Chicago caused conflict for over 30,000 students. Whats their answer for this one. Hit the jump for the full story!
Chicago just made history, they now hold the record for “largest single group of school closings in U.S. history.” Chicago’s government is under some real tight pressure! They have to make up a $1 Billion budget deficit, so their plan to handle this is close 54 schools and 61 buildings, you think they thought about the affects and problems that this would cause or nah? But peep this, the chaos isn’t only in the streets, some official’s aren’t too fond of the decision either! Chicago Teachers Union President Karen Lewis called the move “outrageous” during a press conference, and she also referred to Chicago’s Mayor Rahm Emanuel as a “murder mayor.” Hopefully they figure out this one!
