Recently, Alderman Ameya Pawaran sponsored amendment to the City of Chicago Ordinance. This amendment would create two key changes:
(1) It would prevent employers from using credit check results to deny a person employment.
(2) The amendment also would ban discrimination against the unemployed. If you have experienced this type of discrimination, and are willing to share your experience, contact Nat Lippert at nlippert@unitehere.org to help support this amendment.
The amendment can be found here:
