Bill Daley Desperately Attempts to Distance Himself from Bruce Rauner’s Disastrous Education Record
CHICAGO, IL– At a press conference today, Bill Daley announced his education plan while failing to mention his support for Bruce Rauner, who repeatedly attacked Chicago Public Schools, its teachers, and students.
Daley chaired the transition team for Bruce Rauner, the same failed governor who called Chicago Public School teachers “virtually illiterate” and Chicago schools “crumbling prisons,” held school funding hostage, and demonized Chicago and its students to downstate voters. In a stark contrast, Susana Mendoza played a leading role fighting for historic school funding reform with State Senator Andy Manar while holding Rauner accountable for his disastrous record.
“Bill Daley supported a failed governor who held Chicago Public Schools hostage to force his far-right agenda on Illinois while attacking and demagoguing Chicago Public Schools,” said Susana Mendoza for Mayor spokesman Christian Slater. “Susana will be a mayor who fights relentlessly for neighborhood schools and won’t back down until every child gets a quality public education.”
