Chol Majok

The police oversight agency once again faces uncertainty after it appeared to be on track to continue investigating complaints of police misconduct.

The NYCLU says yes, and may be violating the state's Open Meetings Law. Chair of the common council's public safety committee says there's no formal advisory committee yet. And when there is, its work will be done publicly.

Councilor-at-large Chol Majok joins fellow councilor Pat Hogan, Deputy Mayor Sharon Owens, and Walsh administration official Jimmy Oliver who are either actively seeking or considering a run for mayor.

The measure approved in late April by a 5 to 4 margin gives the common council more oversight of the struggling Citizen Review Board. Six councilors are needed to override the veto.

The $1 million in federal pandemic relief funds will be split among five organizations.

Common Councilors Jennifer Schultz and Chol Majok share what's next, following the recent election.

Syracuse Mayor Ben Walsh last week unveiled his vision for 2023 in his State of the City Address. But in this episode of Syracuse Speaks, we’re going to take some time to look back on Walsh’s past state of the city address.

In addition to being the chair of the Common Council's Public Safety Committee, Chol Majok sits on the Syracuse Police Reform and Reinvention Plan Oversight committee. He said the community must allow time for a full investigation into the event shown on the video.

The Syracuse Common Councilor came to the region more than 20 years ago as one of the so-called “lost boy” refugees from South Sudan is running for New York's 22nd Congressional district.

Enrolled republicans and democrats in the 22nd congressional district are getting ready to cast their votes for who they think has the best chance to emerge as the winner in a general election. Early voting for the primary begins Saturday Aug. 13 in Onondaga County.
