From CBS:

CHICAGO (CBS) – A City Council committee has endorsed a resolution that would declare Chicago a “Torture-Free Zone.”

As WBBM Newsradio Political Editor Craig Dellimore reports, the Committee on Human Relations held a hearing Thursday morning to discuss a resolution that would declare “the Mayor and the City Council of the City of Chicago stand firm against all forms of torture and inhuman treatment, and hereby proclaim Chicago to be a torture-free zone.”
