“First, the City took the unusual position that Officers could not request to be credited with compensatory time for any overtime that they worked during the NATO Summit knowing that this was a clear violation of our contract. Now, after our Mayor, Superintendent, and the citizens of Chicago have heaped praise upon Chicago Police Officers for their excellent work at the NATO Summit, the City has taken the position that Officers are not entitled to compensation for working a sixth or seventh consecutive day during a single calendar week.”-Fraternal Order of Police (FOP) Chicago Lodge 7

“NATO is not an excuse for the city of Chicago to circumvent the contract. It clearly states that officers working overtime are to be paid in either time or money…..This is just another example of the city not honoring the contract.”-Mike Shields, FOP president

Some Chicago cops are starting to realize that those elites they defend are about to screw them over, welcome to the club!
