Edward Burke

Ed Burke and Anthony Beale submitted an ordinance that would put the brakes on "autonomous vehicles."

Parents who had to go pick up kids left chanting, "We want a vote. Keep our schools afloat."

A resolution also called on the Bulls and Blackhawks to designate an empty chair at the United Center.

The $22 million addition addressed overcrowding at one of 12 dual-language Chicago Public Schools.

Burke was inspired by the life-saving tactics of two officers who are combat veterans.

The proposal to make offenses against cops and firefighters hate crimes is not on a committee agenda.

After a terrible 2015, Mayor Rahm Emanuel hasn't managed to turn things around yet.

Their ordinance also would set a five-year limit on going after police accused of abuse.

"The TSA has failed us," said Ald. Edward Burke, adding that 21 U.S. airports do their own screening.

Yet Ald. Emma Mitts plans to reintroduce an ordinance to create a new $75,000 strip-club liquor license.

The Independent Police Review Authority would explain police settlements, but it may soon be disbanded.

But other restrictions, such as not placing dispensaries near schools or day cares, still would apply.

"I'm very disappointed with this," Illinois State Florists' Association President Adam Havrilla said.

Ald. Emma Mitts (37th) is now backing away from the plan, which had some support on the council.

Aldermen Edward Burke and Raymond Lopez said Animal Control officers should have microchip equipment.
