Election temp workers “play a crucial role in upholding a cornerstone of our democracy.” Why isn’t our democracy upholding their right to safe working conditions and a livable wage? Great investigative piece: https://t.co/s3TMcX14JX

Today, we passed the #BringChicagoHome resolution to put housing on the ballot. Tomorrow, our work continues. We need to educate voters on the critical need for housing & resources for the 68k Chicagoans experiencing homelessness.

Israeli historian and genocide scholar Raz Segal says Israeli leaders' dehumanizing language about Palestinians in Gaza and the IDF's conduct are cause for alarm. "We're seeing the combination of genocidal acts with special intent. This is indeed a textbook case of genocide."

@AJManaseer You don’t think that the city might have an agenda in downplaying the problem 🧐? I encourage you to research the many flaws in their current data collection method (PIT count). Also fyi CCH (the non-profit you reference) doesn’t take any governmental funding.

Marketta Sims: “I was doubled-up. I wasn’t on the lease. That meant that I could be kicked out at any moment…We need #BringChicago Home for people experiencing all sides of homelessness. We need affordable housing!”

In March over 150 westsiders showed up to express their support for ending homelessness. @AldermanErvin help create safety for westsiders by supporting a dedicated funding stream for housing.

28th ward @AldermanErvin has been awfully quiet since 150 westsiders showed him their support for ending homelessness. Make your voice heard and tell Alderman Ervin to support the Bring Chicago Home proposal. Take action here: https://t.co/mBS73ADedf

It’s been over three years since we’ve started advocating for dedicated funding to end homelessness. Lightfoot still has time to act on her campaign promise! #BringChicagoHome
