Chicago Mayor's Office failed to report gifts over $50, sparking concerns over transparency.

The Chicago Mayor's Office has been accepting gifts without properly reporting them, according to a new report by the Office of Inspector General. The report found that gifts worth over $50, accepted on behalf of the city, should be logged and made public, but the Mayor's Office failed to do so. The OIG recommends the Mayor's Office comply with public reporting rules, while the Mayor's Office agreed to allow inspections with appointments. This lack of transparency, the OIG says, erodes public trust.
