Summary

A proposed constitutional amendment on redistricting was abruptly put on hold this week after the U.S. Supreme Court issued a major voting rights decision. The fatal shooting of a Chicago police officer put Illinois' SAFE-T Act back in the spotlight. And discussions continue on a legislative plan aimed at keeping the Chicago Bears in Illinois. Peter Hancock, Ben Szalinski and Brenden Moore discuss the legislative news of the week.
