Chicago Mayor-elect Brandon Johnson will be officially sworn in as mayor of a city that has been rattled by years of violent crime, including record-breaking homicide numbers in 2021.
"On fiscal matters Johnson has also been further left, consistently supported soak-the-rich tactics that will further exacerbate Chicago's troubles by driving people and businesses out of town," McGillis said.
"We would do thousands of jobs a year in the city, but as we got robbed more, my people operating rollers and pavers we got robbed, our equipment would get stolen in broad daylight and there would usually be a gun involved, and it got expensive and it got dangerous," a Chicago business owner told Fox News Digital last year of why he pulled his road paving company out of the city.
"He has made defunding the police a priority even though he's tried to walk back those comments. He has stated that this election was a power struggle between Black labor and White wealth, and he's used the race card at every turn. What concerns me is … crime still remains the number one issue in the city of Chicago," Lopez said last month on Fox News’"America Reports."
