Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot proposes city ordinance giving herself a raise
Mayor Lightfoot's raise would adjust her salary for inflation and be capped at 5%
By Anders Hagstrom | Fox News

Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot proposed an ordinance giving the office of the mayor an annual inflation raise capped at 5% on Wednesday.

Lightfoot currently takes in an annual salary of $209,915, a sum that would rise to $216,210 as of May 22, 2023, according to the ordinance. The proposal would allow the mayor's salary to rise up to 5% each year, with a stipulation that the mayor could opt out of the raise.

The proposed raise comes as Lightfoot has faced a stream of heated criticism for her handling of violent crime in her city, which has increased 37% compared to 2021.

The number of motor vehicle thefts so far in 2022 is up 74% compared to the same period in 2021.

But no "stipulation" about a pay CUT for being an incompetent buffoon...
Throwing our allegiances to political parties in the long run gave away our liberty.

Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot has been slammed for cheerfully dancing in the streets during a Lunar New Year parade, as violent crime surges and major retailers abandon the Windy City’s main drag.

Lightfoot, who is seeking re-election next month, was captured on video busting moves while surrounded by a drumline at Sunday’s parade.

Her carefree dancing prompted one Chicago news outlet to blast her as “detached from reality.”

“Since @chicagosmayor’s term began, Chicago has suffered 2,278 homicides and over 9,000 shot. Since January 1, the city has endured 41 homicides and 194 shot,” the Chicago Contrarian outlet said in a tweet. ...
