Rahm presented AG Sessions with a list of ways the feds can help Chicago
Mayor Rahm Emanuel met with attorney general Jeff Sessions in Washington, D.C., Monday and presented him with a “wish list” of ways the federal government can help solve the city’s violence problem. Emanuel’s list included everything from “federal help to bolster police training, supervision equipment and technology to support for mentoring, after-school programs and summer jobs for at-risk youth,” according to the Sun-Times. Sessions reportedly listened to the mayor’s ideas, and while the men don’t necessarily see eye to eye on other issues, they agree that the federal government can do more to help Chicago. [Sun-Times]
