The May 20, 2026 City Council meeting opened with public comment, acknowledgments, and four resolutions honoring Amisha Patel, Jewish American Heritage Month, Asian American, Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander Heritage Month, and Haitian American Heritage Month, all of which passed. Committee reports followed, including passage of several police-related settlements (one, Jose Gonzalez v. City of Chicago, passed 34-16 after debate), the appointment of David Glockner as Inspector General, the appointment of William Cheeks Jr. as CDOT commissioner, an Asian American data disaggregation ordinance, and a compromise ordinance modifying the phase-out timeline for the tip credit. After extended debate, the Reverend Jesse L. Jackson Sr. Fair Access to Democracy Ordinance passed on a roll call, and an ordinance barring Chicago Police Department members from active participation in extremist organizations passed 28-21 after a motion to table a broader substitute succeeded 25-22. A resolution calling for the release of Salah Osur was referred back to the Committee on Health and Human Relations, a sweepstakes machine ordinance was deferred and published, and a motion to discharge a charter commission referendum from committee failed 15-30.

Topics: tip credit compromise, Fair Access to Democracy Ordinance, police extremism ordinance, police settlements, heritage month resolutions, CDOT commissioner appointment, sweepstakes machines, affordable housing listing portal, antisemitism, charter commission referendum
