12 July 2016 / Report
A poll of Chicago business executives found serious concern about influence and corruption in city policies and politics. Among other opinions, there is a near-unanimous view that lobbying City Council members increases corruption, companies gain a business advantage from making political contributions, and officials pay more attention to lobbyists than to voters. Amid their concern lies support for a program that would broaden and strengthen the voices of small donors by the city raising the value of their contributions. The poll was conducted by Crain’s Chicago Business and sponsored by the Committee for Economic Development of The Conference Board (CED), a nonpartisan, business-led public policy organization.
