The City Hall practice of assigning public employees to work for the clouted After School Matters organization will end in January, according to the city's cultural affairs office.
A Tribune review found two salaried city workers handling duties related to fundraising for the charity founded by Maggie Daley, the late wife of former Mayor Richard Daley.
Responding to inquiries from the paper about the status of the employees in Mayor Rahm Emanuel's 2012 budget, the Department of Cultural Affairs and Special Events said the employees would be recalled to city duties beginning Jan. 1.
How about "recalled to city duties immediately and reimbursement sought from the so-called charity"? After all, it looks like this "charity" was a money laundering operation seeing as how people getting massive city contracts were making equally massive donations to an organization with a connected party in charge.
