Chicago will distribute $500, conclusion
At a news conference, Lightfoot explained why he was confident the number of candidates would significantly exceed the show’s funding, reported Fox32.
She said: “Today, 18 percent of our residents live in poverty. And 44 percent live right on the edge of poverty. A job loss and a medical emergency far from financial danger.”
“More than 200,000 Chicagoans live in extreme poverty. Which means his income is less than $6,795 a year, or $13,875 a year for a family of four.”
“Those are devastating numbers. Imagine that for a moment, and trying to keep a family of four fed, clothed, safe and healthy on roughly $13,800 a year. It’s virtually impossible.”
