The Mayor's initiative to overhaul Chicago's tax-increment financing (TIF) program was approved last week, paving the way for $1.25B toward economic developments throughout the city. The ordinance passed 32-17 but with last-ditch efforts to alter the deal. blockclubchicago.org/2024/04/19/may…
At yesterday's City Council meeting, Maria and Ald Jessie Fuentes (26) introduced a resolution to declare April 22-28 as Lesbian Visibility Week in Chicago. The resolution came to fruition as part of a nationwide effort led by The Curve Foundation in CA. windycitytimes.com/lgbt/City-Coun…

The ordinance to ban natural gas in new buildings has gained support from climate change activists, consumer advocates & IL Clean Jobs Coalition affiliates. Shifting from gas heat & appliances will improve health & help progress in fighting climate change. chicagotribune.com/2024/04/03/chi…
It’s solar eclipse day! ⏱️ The eclipse begins at 12:51 pm CDT, reaches maximum eclipse at 2:07 pm, and concludes by 3:22 pm. 😎 To safely view the eclipse, you MUST use proper solar viewing glasses. Looking at a partial eclipse at any time can cause permanent eye damage.
City Council is set to vote on an ordinance that would upend the Mayor's decision to end using ShotSpotter gunshot detection technology in Chicago. The legislation would require a vote to stop using ShotSpotter or remove “any violence prevention funding”. blockclubchicago.org/2024/04/01/ald…
🏳️⚧️ For International Transgender Day of Visibility and our last Women's History Month Spotlight, we are highlighting Cecilia Chung: an activist for Trans-led HIV/AIDs policy work and economic justice.
According to the city's Alderpeople, there are six major reasons why @BringChiHome failed when brought to the ballot. A key factor, said Maria, is that voters were confused by the measure's changing legal status and swayed by opponents' commercials & ads. axios.com/local/chicago/…
"Both past efforts & the type of work that each of us is doing in our wards & the city..we're demonstrating that voters can trust the Progressive Caucus. They can trust our efforts to continue to commit to transparency, especially around budgetary issues." chicago.suntimes.com/city-hall/2024…
Women's History Month Spotlight: Today, we're spotlighting Mexican American labor organizer and civil rights activist, Emma Tenayuca – "La Pasionaria de Texas".

So basically the Bring Chicago Home court case didn’t do anything but energize the organizers.
Sunrise Chicago is proud to endorse a “Yes” vote on Question 1: Fair Share for Affordable Housing @BringChiHome
We are on the road to knocking on over 15,000 doors in support of #BringChicagoHome. This week, we spoke to voters in the Austin community who are saying "yes" to addressing Chicago’s housing and homelessness crisis! Vote “Yes” on Ballot Question 1! @BringChiHome

Buttons are in this year. Corporate greed is out. Join us this weekend to defend our vote & #BringChicagoHome ! Get out & tell our neighbors to vote YES to Ballot Question 1. The real estate industry won't stop us. 🥊 bit.ly/defendbch
Even as Bring Chicago Home's future hangs in limbo, the referendum's supporters are still campaigning hard. The steadfast BCH backers rallied after filing two amicus briefs today, coming off their biggest canvassing weekend yet. They expect a decision on their appeal next week.

Even as Bring Chicago Home's future hangs in limbo, the referendum's supporters are still campaigning hard. The steadfast BCH backers rallied after filing two amicus briefs today, coming off their biggest canvassing weekend yet. They expect a decision on their appeal next week.
HAPPENING NOW: Today over 100+ community organizations, civil rights leaders, elected officials & faith leaders file two amicus briefs in support of Bring Chicago Home votes being counted as the real estate industry’s legal challenge is appealed. 🧵below
Anthony J Perkins of @ONENorthside speaks on the importance of #BringChicagoHome to prevent Chicago families like his from experiencing what they did. Count our votes 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
HAPPENING NOW: Labor, community groups and elected officials sign onto #CountOurVotes amicus briefs in support of @BringChiHome
Earlier this year, our office welcomed Ms. Shenicka Hohenkirk as our new Ward Director! We are excited to have her on the team. Ms. Hohenkirk has strong ties to the 49th Ward through her work in State Senator Mike Simmon's office. Please say hello and congratulate her if you see!
Voters should not be fooled by the Right wing tactics used by corporate interests to suppress the will of the people. It’s clear Chicagoans are ready to #BringChicagoHome and THEY WILL BE ABLE TO CAST THEIR VOTE in support. We won’t stop until our voices are properly heard.
#Breaking: A Cook County judge sided with real estate and commercial groups that had sued the Chicago Board of Elections to keep #BringChicagoHome off the ballot. While voters will still be able to vote on the measure, the results could be suppressed if a higher court affirms.
Vote YES on Ballot Qu 1 to provide housing & supportive services to Chicagoans without homes! #BringChicagoHome is still on the ballot & Chicago voters will still cast their votes as an appeal is pursued. @BringChiHome @ChiHomeless 1/
The vast majority of working folks support #BringChicagoHome— which is why unions across the city like @CMRJB of @WorkersUnited have endorsed the measure. We won’t be intimidated by corporate bullying and greed. We’re voting YES to @BringChiHome on or before MARCH 19! 🗳️ 💪
JUST TO BE CLEAR WE ARE NOT OFF THE BALLOT. This will likely be appealed in court. When right wing forces can’t win the people, they take to the courts. They want to stop us, de-motivate, and confuse voters. WE WILL NOT LET THEM.
So many weird losers on here seem to misunderstand how "voting" works. See, we VOTED for Alders, and they VOTED that the Sanctuary City status would stay. They also VOTED that the public should decide about #BCH, which is why it's on the ballot and should stay. Hope that helps!
