Chicago mayor: Court must end teachers' strike
CHICAGO (AP) — Mayor Rahm Emanuel asked a state court Monday to force Chicago school teachers back to work and end a weeklong strike he calls illegal.
The union immediately condemned the move as an act of vindictiveness by a "bullying" mayor.
Emanuel spokeswoman Sarah Hamilton said city attorneys filed a request in the Cook County Circuit Court to force Chicago Teachers Union members off the picket line and back into classrooms.
