Homeless Camp Cleared, Uncommitted Delegates, and DNC Group Chat
Description
Back in July, the city began clearing out one of the largest homeless tent encampments just two miles from the United Center. Mayor Johnson and his administration say that individuals were offered temporary residency at a city shelter and denied claims they were “hiding the homeless” ahead of this week’s DNC. Sun Times Reporter Elvia Malagón and Audience Engagement Specialist Ellery Jones are here to discuss the latest developments as the city has since further restricted access to the former encampment site. Plus, we are looking at the uncommitted delegate movement, lack of convention momentum on the far west side, and the Sun-Times popular DNC group chat.
