CITY HALL \u2014 Organizers from various affordable housing agencies interrupted a City Council meeting Wednesday, chanting “No TIFs for the Rich!” until they were escorted out by security.<\/p>\n

Their objective was to demand Mayor Rahm Emanuel halt Tax Increment Funding that doesn’t benefit communities and insisting that he begin regulating the Chicago Housing Authority, the group said.<\/strong><\/p>\n
