Run Juanita Run!!

We are neighbors in and around Chicago’s 26^th Ward who think it’s time for a change in who represents us at City Hall. We’re working with Juanita Irizarry to develop a campaign for her to run for alderman in the February 2015 election because we know she will be focused on:

Independence and Accountability: Juanita will make decisions after listening to community desires, not what donors or other elected officials ask her to do.

Strengthening Our Schools: Juanita will fight to make sure that neighborhood schools stay open and have the resources they need to help our children succeed.

Keeping Our Neighborhoods Safe: Juanita will work to strengthen partnerships between community groups and the police to reduce crime and violence.

Creating Jobs And Strengthening the Community: Juanita will support businesses that pay living wage jobs, increasing the minimum wage, preserving affordable housing and other community development efforts that build on the current diversity of the ward.
