The Chicago Board of Ethics decided more investigations are needed before rendering judgment about whether Mayor Lori Lightfoot’s campaign violated rules when it solicited Chicago public school teachers to encourage students to help her reelection efforts.
Mayor Lori Lightfoot talks to reporters about the campaign complaint on Jan. 12, 2023, in Chicago.
The Chicago Teachers Union — which endorsed Lightfoot challenger Brandon Johnson — said in a letter that it was concerned members who declined to help Lightfoot’s campaign could face retaliation. The city’s ethics board met Monday afternoon to consider the issue, though neither the board agenda nor members made any mention of the campaign or the mayor directly. Board policy is to keep names and titles confidential unless a violation is found.
