Other notes and pre-research resources

• It’s expected that City Council will vote on a cease-fire resolution that would call on President Joe Biden to “call for and facilitate a lasting peace in the Middle East.” The item was deferred from the regular monthly City Council meeting after certain alders took issue with addressing the item at the same meeting they would be acknowledging Holocaust Remembrance Day.
