In an affordability crisis, CHA has hundreds of vacant units and more than 100 acres of vacant land. Chicagoans need us to get this one right, starting with how we select and compensate leadership at CHA. And the status quo ain't cutting it. chicagotribune.com/2025/04/07/chi…

No one convicted of participating in a violent insurrection should be on government payroll. The State of Illinois made their policy crystal clear on this, and now Chicago needs to do the same. news.wttw.com/2025/04/09/cit…

We can't afford backsliding on air quality in Chicago. That means we need bold action that confronts the reality of climate change, including: 🚏Expand bus lines 🚆Rehab aging El infrastructure 🚶Safer streets for pedestrians and bikers 🔌More public EV chargers

The first few years of a child's life are some of the most important for development. Head Start helps families in those years by providing child care and other support systems. Trump's proposed cuts will leave students less prepared to succeed in elementary school and beyond.

Last week, Trump cut hundreds of millions of dollars from violence prevention, including in Chicago. Political posturing and fear mongering doesn't keep anyone safe. If he were serious about our safety, he'd invest in (not defund) data-driven, lifesaving programs like these.

Chicagoans have demanded new leadership at the CTA for years. Now, there's an opportunity to select an experienced and visionary leader to take on major challenges. A transparent, thorough national search should be conducted to attract and consider the best possible candidates.

It's common sense: carjacking victims shouldn't be on the hook for traffic tickets for their stolen vehicle. But that's been the City's policy. We should support victims, not add stress and cost. Today, my proposal to automatically dismiss these tickets passed in City Council.

Evanston did it, and so can we. This week, I introduced legislation to do away with exorbitant move-in fees and fix our security deposit system. chicagotribune.com/2025/05/02/sec…

Medical debt isn't an indicator of financial responsibility and shouldn't impact your ability to sign a lease. Disappointing but not surprising Trump sides with credit agencies over good policy. Chicago can help by forgiving years-old ambulance ride debt. npr.org/2025/05/26/nx-…

Finding justice in a courtroom can be long and draining. Families like Jayden's deserve to be supported every step of the way. The City needs to invest in projects like CAN Hope to create a 24/7 safe location with therapeutic, housing, and legal resources for survivors.

Asphalt will be used for fun activities this Sunday 6/22, noon to 4 PM at North Center’s monthly Berenice Bash pop-up, a possible preview of permanent open space at the little-used City-owned parking lot at 1914 W. Bernice. chi.streetsblog.org/2025/06/18/asp…

This is a pivotal moment for the CTA. We can make it safer, faster, and cleaner to get around the city. But not without a permanent leader or a real national talent search.  chicagotribune.com/2025/06/19/bra…
