A measure designed to ensure those with past criminal records have equal access to stable housing authored by Comm. Brandon Johnson (D-1) sailed through committee Wednesday.
Cook County Comm. Brandon Johnson said the "just housing" measure was designed to put an end to the "ghosts of Jim Crow" which continues "to haunt, marginalize families." [A.D. Quig/The Daily Line]
If Johnson’s first major piece of legislation clears the full board Thursday, the Just Housing Initiative (19-2394), would go into effect in six months.
