Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson signed an executive order on Wednesday requiring city contractors to disclose information about leadership diversity demographics, as well as report whether they have any ties to certain law enforcement agencies such as ICE, as he moves to use the city's purchasing power to impose new contracting standards.
Johnson said workplace data was necessary to identify discrimination and criticized the Trump administration's efforts to end federal reporting requirements.
"If you want to do business with this city, we want to know whether the people leading your company reflect the diversity of the communities whose tax dollars are paying your contracts," Johnson said.
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) accused Johnson of punishing American companies for ***** isting federal immigration enforcement.
