(CHICAGO) The Chicago Teachers Union is “leaning against” going on strike later this month, and Mayor Rahm Emanuel is glad to hear it.
Emanuel says he welcomes talk of no strike because he says we should instead be talking about finishing the year and building on the success of teachers and students.
“And let’s as leaders use our time to convince the State of Illinois to stop [getting] an “F” when it comes to funding education and not allow them to get another “F” this year when it comes to funding education for poor kids,” Emanuel said.
And after this presser, Rahm was feeling sufficiently good to grab a police officers bicycle and take a spin on Lower Wacker Drive.
