“It is quite evident that the winds of change are blowing across the city of Chicago this morning. When I walk down 26th Street, I see the hustle and bustle. I feel at home. I feel proud. But Chicago is at a crossroads. It’s not like that for everyone.
“Chicago needs a leader with a vision of our future and the know-how and the empathy to get us there together. From crime to unemployment to the shortage of affordable housing, there is so much we need to build.
