“This is about making sure we don’t surrender our humanity. We have to turn toward one another. The great late saint John Lewis reminded us that sometimes it’s necessary to come together and punch back! Equity and justice is the righteous call for everyone!”

We have a housing affordability crisis in Chicago. We need every tool at our disposal to build additional housing units so that we can drive down the cost for working families. chicagotribune.com/2025/07/08/may…
Happy Anniversary to my beautiful wife and my best friend Stacie! For 27 years you’ve been an amazing partner, a loving mother to our incredible children, and my Forever First Lady. I thank God for you daily and I’m grateful to have you by my side. Here’s to 27 more years!
Had a great time at the 47th Annual Peoples Puerto Rican Parade alongside our wonderful Northwest Side Latine Progressives. There's nowhere else in the Midwest like Humboldt Park for experiencing Puerto Rico's vibrant food and culture.
For everyone participating in the Pride Parade this weekend, let's show up for each other and make this a safe, fun celebration for all.
Why are we even debating something that doesn't work? Ask me what is working, not about a failed attempt to criminalize our young people.
I don't know why when it comes to poor people, the government doing its part is considered a bailout. But that standard is never held to corporations.
Thank you @WBEZ @SashaAnnSimons for giving me the opportunity to answer the concerns on the top of Chicagoans' minds. Watch the full Ask The Mayor segment here: youtube.com/watch?v=5jwWc6…
I've experienced the power of peaceful protest firsthand. Let's continue Chicago's tradition of nonviolent resistance as we defend our Constitutional rights. @WBEZ @SashaAnnSimons
