Kenney: Where's the mayor?

With many in city government reeling from the apparent suicide of a colleague and City Council voting on critical measures for next year's budget, Councilman Jim Kenney says he doesn't get why Mayor Nutter is in Chicago.

"The mayor is taking care of the city's business," McDonald said. "The mayor has been in contact with the family [of Ron Wagenhoffer, the L&I inspector who took his life Wednesday night] multiple times and with his staff from the very early hours when he learned about this."

"It is sad that Councilman Kenney finds it necessary to play politics with a tragedy of this nature," McDonald said.
