This week, Bill is joined by Emma Tai from the Bring Chicago Home Campaign. They are aiming to put a referendum on the March Primary Ballot that would increase the real estate transfer tax for properties worth more than $1 million. That money would then go towards helping the homeless in Chicago. It has been called the "mansion tax." Emma talks about the details of the plan and why it is needed in the city.

The reporter roundtable with Heather Cherone, Greg Hinz and Dave Stewart talked about the Chicago City Council passing a resolution calling for a ceasefire in Gaza. It was a tie vote amongst the alderpeople and Mayor Brandon Johnson voted yes to break the tie. The roundtable was recorded on Thursday while employees of the Chicago Tribune were on strike which was why roundtable regular, Ray Long, was not a part of the roundtable this week. The rest of the reporters commented on the strike and state of journalism in Chicago and the rest of the country. And Donald Trump was kept on the primary ballot in Illinois.
