Controversial Dolton Mayor Tiffany Henyard Seeks Reelection Amid Financial Mismanagement Allegations

Facing multiple investigations and lawsuits, Mayor Henyard remains determined to run for another term in Dolton, Illinois.

  • Henyard, elected in 2021 with over 80% of the vote, is under scrutiny for alleged misuse of taxpayer funds, including extravagant spending on personal items and events.
  • Former Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot's audit revealed a $3.65 million deficit in Dolton's general fund, down from a $5.6 million surplus when Henyard took office.
  • Federal investigations are ongoing into Henyard's financial management and involve her political committee and charity.
  • Despite the controversies, Henyard has announced her intention to run for reelection, claiming she has the support of Dolton residents.
  • Henyard faces opposition from trustee Jason House, who is running with the Clean House slate in the upcoming election.
