Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel is toning down his harsh remarks about the Chick-Fil-A restaurant chain, which is battling to open a second restaurant in the Windy City.
Earlier this week, Emanuel had said that Chick-Fil-A’s values were not Chicago’s values.
But now an Emanuel spokesman says the mayor was referring only to the company’s founder and president, who has supported groups which oppose same-sex marriage.
The mayor’s office says Emanuel will not block Chick-Fil-A from opening a new franchise in Chicago.
