Ethics Pledge

On May 16, 2011, Mayor Emanuel enacted Executive Order 2011-1. It requires Shakman-exempt employees of Executive Departments, department heads, non-clerical employees of the Mayor's Office, and persons appointed by the Mayor to City boards, commissions, authorities or agencies on or after May 16, 2011, to sign an Ethics Pledge http://bit.ly/mSkLU1. On July 28, 2011, this requirement was enacted into law by the City Council, as Section 2-156-015 of the Governmental Ethics Ordinance (effective September 8, 2011) http://bit.ly/qYti7P. The law requires new hires or appointees to sign the pledge within 14 days of starting their employment or appointments. The pledge obligates signers to abide by a ban on lobbying activity for two years after their City service ends. The Board of Ethics maintains these signed pledges. As a convenience, we are pleased to attach a list of persons who have signed this pledge. This list is sortable by name and department.

于2011年5月16日，市长艾曼纽签署了行政命令2011-1。该命令要求行政部门的Shakman豁免员工、部门负责人、市长办公室的非文书员工，以及自2011年5月16日起由市长任命至城市委员会、委员会、权力机构或机构的个人，签署一项道德誓言（http://bit.ly/mSkLU1）。2011年7月28日，市议会将该要求纳入法律，作为政府道德条例的第二节第一百五十六条第一款（自2011年9月8日起生效）http://bit.ly/qYti7P。该法律要求新聘员工或任命者必须在开始就业或任命后的14天内签署誓言。该誓言要求签署者在城市服务结束后两年内禁止进行游说活动。道德委员会负责保存这些签署的誓言。为方便起见，我们很高兴地附上已签署此誓言的人员名单。该名单可按姓名和部门排序。
