Lightfoot has made efforts to reverse decades of disinvestment on the South and West sides the center of her administration’s economic development policy. But her efforts have been “too slow” and “too short.”
The mass shooting that wounded at least 11 adults and three children during a vigil in East Garfield Park on Halloween night is an example of the failures of Mayor Lori Lightfoot’s administration, mayoral candidate Commissioner Brandon Johnson said Tuesday during an interview with “Chicago Tonight.”
Johnson vowed to address the structural inequity that pervades Chicago and fuels violent crime, calling high-performing schools, affordable housing and health care all violence prevention measures. Johnson, a founding member of United Working Families, has also been endorsed by progressive groups in the 30th, 33rd, 35th and 39th wards.
That effort has been complicated by U.S. Rep. Jesús “Chuy” Garcia’s public consideration of a mayoral bid, which advanced Tuesday when Garcia to notify the Illinois State Board of Elections that he plans to use his Friends of Chuy Garcia committee to raise money for a potential run for mayor. Garcia, who is running for re-election to Congress on Tuesday, will announce his decision after Election Day, Diaz said.
