Source-backed correlation review of public data to identify potential connections between public grants/awards and campaign contributions Grants and awards from public entities to businesses, and campaign contributions from those businesses or related entities to public officials or committees Topic: I want Public Ledger to review whether public grants or awards in Illinois/Chicago went to businesses whose owners or related entities made public campaign contributions to officials or committees that later influenced those awards. Treat this as a source-backed correlation review, not an accusation of illegal quid pro quo.
