Illinois Lawmakers Introduce Bill To Oust Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel

As Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel's popularity spirals downward, two Illinois Democrats have introduced legislation that could lead to a recall of the embattled mayor.

Just hours after Emanuel made a rare apology for the city's handling of the fatal 2014 police shooting of Laquan McDonald, Illinois Reps. La Shawn Ford (D-Chicago) and Mary Flowers (D-Chicago) introduced a bill that would amend a 1941 state law and allow the City of Chicago to hold a recall election.
