Johnson won the election April 4, and it's been two days since he was sworn in; so far, I haven't seen any news about mass resignations in the police department.In the initial hours after being sworn in as mayor of Chicago on Monday, Brandon Johnson signed his first batch of executive orders, with the majority of the measures establishing new leadership roles in city government.
[...]
The first of four orders seeks to boost youth employment by instructing the city's Office of Budget and Management to analyze resources in the fiscal year 2023 budget that are available to fund youth empoyment and enrichment programs. The order also instructs the Mayor's Office to coordinate youth employment and enrichment activities among city sister agencies and city departments for summer internships and community service opportunities, according to the news release.
Johnson also signed three executive orders establishing new deputy mayor positions, the first of which is a deputy mayor for immigrant, migrant and refugee rights.
Under the order, all city department heads will be instructed to take direction from the deputy mayor "to assist with efforts to address immediate needs and long-standing policy and programmatic goals to ensure the efficacy of Chicago’s status as a welcoming and sanctuary city."
Additional executive orders establish a deputy mayor for community safety, who will focus on "eradicating the root causes of crime and violence and advance a comprehensive, healing-centered approach to community safety" and a deputy mayor for labor relations.
