Chicago City Council approves campaign ethics tweaks as election season heats up (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Candidates for city office will have to stand by their campaign ads — in writing or aloud in commercials — by saying “I approve this message” as part of a set of pared-down ethics changes approved by the Chicago City Council.

Read excerpt
Attorney William J. Quinlan, who has worked behind the scenes with some of the state’s highest profile politicians, is entering the crowded Chicago mayoral election fray.
