The 90,000-member union that represents hospital, nursing home, home care and child care workers throughout the Midwest backed Cook County commissioner Brandon Johnson.
Brandon Johnson speaks after receiving the backing of SEIU Local 73 in his bid for mayor on Nov. 9, 2022.
“It is a tremendous honor to have the endorsement of SEIU Healthcare Illinois, which serves our city’s most vulnerable — children, seniors and individuals living with disabilities,” Johnson said. As a member of the Board of Commissioners, Johnson is best known for authoring a measure that sought to prevent landlords from refusing to rent housing to people with certain criminal records. Johnson said the measure was designed to help county residents returning from jail or prison rebuild their lives.
Progressive groups in Chicago worked for nearly a year to lay the groundwork to defeat Lightfoot by uniting behind a single candidate. Those groups endorsed Johnson, but that effort ran aground after García launched his bid for Chicago mayor.
