Apparently, City Treasurer Melissa Conyears-Ervin feels that she is above the law and that ethics policy doesn’t apply to her or her office. Right now, the blaze is a 2-11 alarm fire rising to become a 5-11 alarm fire. The Inspector General needs to put aside any other business and attack the city treasurer allegations with the full force of the IG’s office. Let’s make sure that no stone is left unturned and that there are no skeletons left in the closet. The treasurer handles the people’s money and entrusted to follow the law.
Let’s bring out in the open what is found and don’t sweep it under the rug. In Illinois, the public has seen too many elected officials get caught in violate the oath of office. The public demands truth and integrity. We await the findings of the IG investigation.
