It’s been a little more than a month since Brandon Johnson declared victory in the mayoral runoff election, and he’s now taken his place on the fourth floor of City Hall. In his inauguration speech Monday, Chicago’s new mayor set some priorities. Among them were safety, transit, reopening shuttered mental health clinics, and finding resources for the some 8,000 migrants who have made their way to Chicago since August.
In this episode, we get the download on Mayor Johnson’s first couple days in office from WBEZ city politics and government reporters Mariah Woelfel and Tessa Weinberg.
