The Cook County Rules and Administration Committee met on May 13, 2026, at 9:30 a.m. to consider routine approvals and hear public testimony. The meeting was called to order after establishing a quorum with nine members present (Commissioners Anaya, Britton, Daly, Dagnan, Miller, Morita, Sean Morrison, Scott, and Chairman Daly). Commissioners Miller and Marita were initially marked absent, but Commissioner Miller was later added to the roll, and Commissioner Morita participated remotely after a motion to allow remote participation was approved unanimously. The committee heard three public speakers and then approved the committee minutes and journal of proceedings.
Three members of the public provided testimony under the board's rules (three minutes each, no vulgar or abusive language permitted).
