It’s also ironic that it was accomplished because of the work of great elected officials like @DanielBiss and @JulianaStratton in the state legislature and @RobertJPeters as an organizer. They have been there and will continue to to be here to advocate for our rights. Lets go!

I’m seeing a lot of the candidates today talking about same-day registration. Which I am really glad for. It’s one of the most proudest moments of my career while at Common Cause…

After years of advocacy and a successful lawsuit filed by the Environmental Law and Policy Center on behalf of the Alliance of the Southeast and Friends of the Parks, Chicago’s last lakefront landfill is closing and will be a new lakefront park. A huge victory!

We call on @ChicagosMayor, @ChicagoParks to do everything they can within the law to ensure that such displays of force in our Chicago parks do not happen again.

FOTP was shocked and deeply troubled by ICE agents recently posing in front of The Bean (Cloud Gate) in Millennium Park for a photo op. Chicago’s parks are sanctuaries throughout our city that should be places of peace, safety, and community.
The millions of people who live, work

[Brian Gladstein @bgladstein]

Which was the impact as ICE agents were reported to have yelled “Little Village” as they posed for this propaganda shot as reported by Block Club author Colin Boyle on November 10, 2025.

Appreciate our @GovPritzker so much. “We’re not going to put up with their BS about anyone's age. Age isn't what distinguishes these two candidates from one another. Donald Trump was stupid and ignorant long before he got old.”

@jcua_chicago @repdeliaramirez Two of the most badass leaders I’ve ever met. And I have had the privilege to call both co-workers. Thank you @marla_bramble and @DeliaRamirezIL for helping create the world we all deserve.

[JCUA @jcua_chicago]

JCUA is horrified to learn of the murder of a Palestinian-American child in Plainfield, Illinois. We are joining our partners at @cairchicago for a press conference today at 3:30 pm to discuss the incident.

@bradlander @jcua_chicago Thank you @bradlander for being a #JewsforJohnson and being @jcua_chicago recipient last year of the Rabbi Marx award for Social Justice. All of your work and support for @Brandon4Chicago and progressive politics in NYC, Chicago, and across the nation is more important than ever

[Brad Lander @bradlander]

Enjoyed hearing @Brandon4Chicago speak to Congregation Anshe Emet about how he’ll build bridges to fight antisemitism & racism.

So many #JewsForJohnson incl. Rosa & me & Congressmember @janschakowsky & @jcua_votes (Chicago’s new version of @TheJewishVote who are out in force)

[AGM94 @assertivegerard]

Jews for Johnson @jcua_votes!!
