This may set Mayor Brandon Johnson to issue the first mayoral veto in Chicago since 2006, after council approved the 'snap' curfew proposal by a 27-22 vote -- not the supermajority needed to override such a move. chicago.suntimes.com/politics/2025/…

BREAKING: Mayor Brandon Johnson says he WILL issue the first veto by a Chicago mayor since 2006 to kill the controversial curfew proposal passed by a vote of 27 to 22 today in City Council. Council proponents would need to increase their vote count to 34 to override that move.

Alden and management have given no meaningful answers on what is happening or why. They've rejected every attempt to make a buyout better. The confusion they are creating hurts people. We deserve better, and our readers deserve better. We'll keep fighting for it.
