Quotes

Officials only, in order.

ICE’s policies have caused real pain and devastation for many families in Chicago, and our focus should be on protecting and advocating for immigrants in our communities who have been harmed by these policies.Debra Silverstein · Alderperson · Ward 504:06:06
So the, um, the document that I got was just today said that the committee met on May 7th and that this item was held in committee due to adjournment. And I think other people got a document that was updated that says it was a do-pass recommendation. So could the chairwoman explain the discrepancy on these, uh, documents?Scott Waguespack · Alderperson · Ward 324:09:59

How we count

Each summary sentence is checked against the transcript before it is published; in a blind check, 144 of 150 sentences were right. A voice gets an official’s name only when two AI readers and a code check agree, so the minutes undercount and are not attendance. Officials only: members of the public are counted, never named, shown or quoted, and full transcripts aren’t published because they can carry their names. More on how we know
