Chicago SunTimes - Rep Bobby Rush: I'll Stop Metra in It's Tracks
Rep. Bobby Rush (D-Ill.) is threatening to stop Metra “in its tracks” unless more African-Americans firms get work from a massive railroad construction project in his congressional district called the “Englewood Flyover.”...Metra spokesman Michael Gillis declined to comment on the accuracy of Rush’s tip because, he said, the bidding process is not complete.While this could be nothing more than political posturing it's probably something to keep an eye on.
