#2,727 - Dolton, Thornton Township residents seek ouster of Tiffany Henyard ahead of election

Amid escalating tensions and allegations of mismanagement, calls for Tiffany Henyard's removal from office are intensifying within Illinois' south suburbs. Local officials and community members voiced their concerns in a Zoom call with at least 300 participants discussing the contentious conduct of Henyard, as reported by WGN TV. Amidst anger over a recent brawl during a Thornton Township meeting, activist Jedidiah Brown and others implored Governor JB Pritzker and other state officials to intervene. "So I plead today, alongside everybody involved, that the governor and the state’s attorney give the people what they already said they wanted, and that was for them to step up and remove this so it doesn’t go on another day," Brown stated during Friday's call.
