Description

As migrants struggle to get by without legal work authorization, a new investigation found day laborers face exploitation, physical assault, and arrests. City Bureau’s Sarah Conway and freelance investigative journalist Sebastian Hidalgo tell us about the investigation. Plus, we talk about Gov. JB Pritzker calling for the resignation of the Sangamon County sheriff following the killing of Sonya Massey, the Chicago Police Department’s portion of the DNC security funding, and the Sox’s broken losing streak and management shake-up


Good news: Former staffers from the Schuler Scholars program have put together an initiative to raise money for the students whose tuition coverage was taken away, a Chicago artist is showcasing work in Mexico, and the Bud Biliken Parade is Saturday.
