Chicago Uses City Contracts to Push Diversity and ICE-Related Disclosures
TL;DR Summary
Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson signed an executive order requiring city contractors to disclose leadership diversity data, report any ties to law-enforcement agencies (including ICE), and reveal civil-rights or wage-theft violations. Large firms (net income $1B+) must provide leadership diversity, board composition, and diversity policies, while all contractors must update disclosures annually and comply with new procurement rules within 90 days. The move aims to use city purchasing power to enforce values, but DHS criticized it as punishing companies that assist ICE; Johnson noted ICE alone is not a disqualifier.
