Supermayor double dips taxpayers and spends $100,000K+ on "Conferences"

For months, Dolton Mayor Tiffany Henyard’s administration repeatedly refused to release spending records, in violation of the state’s government transparency laws.

Even when Illinois Attorney General Kwame Raoul’s office ordered the village to turn over the documents, Henyard and her allies took no action.

WGN’s parent company filed a lawsuit in Cook County Circuit Court.

In response, a judge recently ordered Dolton to release dozens of pages of documents, including months’ worth of credit card statements. A review of those records shows Henyard and her allies spent tens of thousands of dollars on first-class flights, airline upgrades, high-end hotels, Uber Eats and more.

The statements cover a five-month span, from July to November 2023.
