Public Newsroom #8: Decoding Chicago’s Police Union Contract

6:00 pm — 8:00 pm

On June 30, 2017, the Fraternal Order of Police’s contract with the city of Chicago is set to expire pending negotiations for a new agreement. Using a team of City Bureau Documenters, an Excel spreadsheet, and Rap Genius, we’ve annotated the police union contract with analysis, media reports, legal cases/studies, academic research, and more to present a complete view of how the FOP shapes city policy on behalf of its membership. Public Newsroom #8 will include a guided discussion with local experts, a public Q&A and break-out groups framed around the launch of the Invisible Institute #FOPtracker.
