Chicago Moves gas cards application now open after Chicago City Council approved Mayor Lori Lightfoot's plan to give out free transit and gas cards.
The application process opened Wednesday after the city council approved the measure, but it was not without some serious debate. The plan went some last minute changes to get the needed votes."Anything that we can do to help give people a leg up a hand up, I think it's something that we as a body need to do," 28th Ward Ald. Jason Ervin said.
The gas giveaway was modified to win crucial support from three aldermen, allowing the measure to pass 26-23. The revised plan won over 36th Ward Ald. Gilbert Villegas.
