Chuy: Rahm cut the budget

Dear robert-- Two weeks ago, we asked Chicagoans to share their stories of real life under Rahm's administration. The response was overwhelming. Dozens and dozens of people told us about difficulties they've experienced due to failed policies and wrong priorities. Now, we are asking you to pick the story that should be made into a video.

I was appalled to see one huge commercial for himrather than Chicago portrayed truthfully...
