Super Mayor Henyard: "If You Don’t Want to Listen, There's the Door"

In Thornton Township, Illinois, a special meeting called by Supervisor Tiffany Henyard was abruptly canceled due to the absence of trustees.

However, Henyard seized the moment to address the remaining attendees, defending her leadership and addressing criticisms about her spending.

The scrutiny on Henyard intensified after an investigation revealed that over $100,000 in taxpayer money from Thornton Township and the Village of Dolton, where she also serves as mayor, was spent on travel expenses.

Henyard's former assistant, now a trustee, accused her of manipulating residents, urging others to speak out against the misuse of power.

While Henyard dismissed the criticism, the growing concerns about fiscal responsibility in the township continue to fuel debate.
