Description

The General Assembly’s six-day veto session kicks off Tuesday in Springfield. This is the time when lawmakers will discuss laws vetoed by the governor and other pressing issues that need to be addressed before January. Despite calls from Chicago leaders and residents, additional funding to help migrants is likely not on the agenda. But WTTW’s Amanda Vinicky tells host Jacoby Cochran that issues around guns, unionization, and the state’s biometric privacy law could come up.
