🚨 COOK COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION COMMITTEE | SEPTEMBER 23, 2026
Chicago Flips Red was at the Cook County Department of Transportation and Highways Committee meeting asking questions and watching where taxpayer money is going.
On January 28, 2026, a Cook County judge ruled that Cook County violated Illinois’ Safe Roads Amendment by using approximately $243 million in transportation-tax revenue for expenses that were not constitutionally authorized transportation purposes.
That’s $243 MILLION.
This is exactly why CFR shows up to these government meetings.
We’re watching the budgets.
We’re following the money.
We’re asking questions.
And we’re putting the information in front of the taxpayers.
This is why the elected officials hate to see me coming.
