City Hall Turnover, CTA Transit Merger, and Stevie Wonder at UC

This week both the deputy mayor for education Jen Johnson and mayoral communications chief Ronnie Reese separately resigned, sparking concerns that ongoing turnover in the mayor's office may be cause for worry at City Hall. We ask Block Club Chicago's Atavia Reed and Jamie Nesbitt Golden if recent turnover is unique to this administration and about the message it may be sending to voters. Plus, Chicagoans weigh in on a potential CTA, Metra, and Pace merger, St. Sabina reopens a South Side community resource center, and Stevie Wonder is coming to Chicago.
