Chicago mayor LoriLightfoot's campaign asks teachers to get students to volunteer: Report
The email, from Lightfoot's deputy campaign manager, encouraged teachers to share the externship"opportunity" with students to"help Mayor Lightfoot win this spring.""As the race heats up, we're looking to enrich our office through what we call our externship program. Could you please share this opportunity with your students," the email said.
"This is unethical and wrong on so many levels — not least of which is our concern that CTU members who decline to volunteer for the mayor’s campaign or encourage their students to do so could face retaliation. This is the same Mayor who promised to clean up corruption and make good ethics an anchor in her administration. This latest scheme shows she’s a rank hypocrite on ethics issues — including her attempt to use our schools and students as her campaign tools," the union said.
