Refund America Project’s Financial Plan for Chicago

In Chicago, a coalition of labor and community groups is countering the narrative that the City is broke and needs to cut public services and government pensions. They are rallying support for a financial plan for Chicago that puts communities first by seeking revenue solutions from the city’s wealthiest residents and corporations. The plan, released by the Refund America Project (RAP), also calls on city leaders to recover millions of dollars in losses from unjust, complex financial deals and drastically reduce fees paid to Wall Street each year.
