Chicagoans want the homeless to be helped first instead of migrants but defeated the Bring Chicago Home ballot measure to help fight homelessness.
Good morning! Some CCH staff and leaders are outside the polling place at the Michael Barlow Center on the West Side. Polls are open today until 7 P.M.! Let's #BringChicagoHome!
So @Ald_Villegas has become a "champion" of electing 20 school board seats? When he was Lightfoot's council leader, he called for a hybrid model that was even more appointed (8-3) than the current legislation. Nice u-turn.
This you?
Tune in and let your State elected officials hear your voice in opposition to a Chicago hybrid school board. Chicago wants a fully elected school board, now! ilga.gov/senate/committ…

Right now: we, students, and allies from across the city are outside @ChiPubSchools and its Board of Education - meeting this morning - to demand real safety and #CopsOutCPS
Below is a joint statement from Brighton Park Neighborhood Council, @ChiFreeSchool , @GKMC18, and @STOPChicago, members of the #CopsOutCPS coalition —
#CopsOutCPS youth organizers claiming their win ahead of a Board of Ed meeting where Board members are planning on passing a resolution to cut CPS’s contract with CPD and reinvest that money in holistic school safety
Outside of the Board of Education this morning with youth and allies demanding real safety in our schools. That looks like long-term investment in our young people, not police. #CopsOutCPS
Organizing works! After years of community pressure, the City of Chicago has committed to ending its use of ShotSpotter in September 2024. Thank you to all the coalition partners, community members, the Mayor, and every person who fought for this #StopShotSpotter
BREAKING: Mayor Brandon Johnson joins the call for a ceasefire in the Israel-Hamas war, saying that “the killing needs to stop” after the deaths of 25,000 Palestinians, and supports the resolution that the City Council did not vote on today. Johnson: “We need a ceasefire.” @wttw
Thank you @ChicagosMayor for supporting the Clean and Affordable Buildings Ordinance! This will lower utility costs, protect our health, create jobs, and reduce pollution. Let’s get it done! #ElectrifyChi
This is why we need #BringChicagoHome along with just & fair housing for poor people! In #Chicago there are thousands of families & mainly Elders who suffer during our extreme cold temps! This has to change! All utilities should be a free public good! cbsnews.com/chicago/news/c…
Chicago must lead on an equitable transition away from fossil fuels and toward a clean energy future in every zip code. I am proud to take the first step by introducing the Clean and Affordable Buildings Ordinance with @ChiAlderwoman and 12 co-sponsors. blockclubchicago.org/2024/01/24/chi…
