Chicago Democrats on Monday lambasted Republican members of the House Judiciary Committee for planning a crime forum in Chicago on Tuesday, rather than working to avoid a federal government shutdown.
Jordan went on social media Monday to criticize Chicago’s handling of violent crime, writing on the platform X that a string of armed robberies in Chicago is "what happens when Democrats run your city." In another post, he wrote, "30 shot. 3 killed. One weekend. Democrat-run Chicago."
"Instead of focusing on the victims of mass shootings caused by weak gun protection laws, including in his own district, he has chosen to be spend his time with John Catanzara — the man who in the immediate aftermath of January 6th, proclaimed it to be simply a protest," Foxx said in a statement. "This behavior is not surprising, but it is alarming.
Speaking at Ald. Emma Mitts’ West Side office, U.S. Rep. Danny Davis, D-Ill., called the GOP forum "unbelievable" and a distraction from House Speaker Kevin McCarthy’s struggles to gather enough votes to pass a short-term spending plan.
