Chicago Policies Linked to Business and Resident Departures
What happened
Policies in Chicago are reportedly causing businesses and middle-class residents to leave the city. One such policy is an executive order limiting city contracts to companies whose leadership reflects local community diversity and requiring disclosure of ties to federal immigration enforcement. This trend is described as eroding the city's tax base.
