SCHAKOWSKY APPLAUDS HUD AND CHICAGO HOUSING AUTHORITY FOR GUN BUY BACK INITIATIVE

PROGRAM WOULD RID CHA COMMUNITIES OF 1,000 GUNS

CHICAGO, IL - U.S. Representative Jan Schakowsky (D-IL) today applauded the announcement by the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) that will help the Chicago Housing Authority (CHA) rid its developments of 1,000 guns.
