“Here’s the thing. I think about our kids. And I think about all the harm that’s been done to them by the strike. I think about those seniors who’ve been deprived of opportunities and are not being set up for success because the supports CPS would ordinarily be giving them to prepare them for life after high school, that’s been taken away from them. So when I sit there and I go, if we can put a modest amount of additional money on the table to get a deal done, I’m not going to stand in the way of getting our kids back in class.”
