EVERY democrat dominated city in same mess! Chicago ONLY!!-----A 2024 update on the State of Chicago Pensions

Our greatest public finance challenge remains a great public finance challenge Conor Durkin
As you might imagine, we are not doing great...
  • Note that if I use the city’s December 31, 2021 figure instead of the CRR’s, the four funds had $10.96 billion in assets against $44.65 billion in liabilities for a 24.5% funded rate and $33.70 billion in net liabilities.
