Alderman Joe Moore meets Ben Joravsky, political reporter for the Chicago Reader!


CP students were treated to a rare and lively debate between Alderman Joe Moore and political reporter Ben Joravsky at the Chicago Program office on Friday.  Students asked pointed questions about G8/NATO, TIFs and why Chicago still doesn’t have a city-wide recycling program.  Other topics included the closing of libraries, length of the school day, participatory budgeting, and the decriminalization of marijuana.  Alderman Moore was articulate and gracious, and Joravsky is even funnier in person!  Joravsky shared his experience on the Bleader.
