Machine style politics are alive and well in Jim Gardiner’s 45th Ward. I’d ask the Inspector General to investigate but Gardiner would probably add me to his lawsuit for hurting his feelings.

Hey #bikechi, do you ride the north branch trail? Do you hate having to cross 6 lanes plus a high-speed slip lane at Devon? Come join me tonight to call for better/safer! At Edgebrook elementary from 5:30-7:30pm, there’s a CDOT meeting on improving this monstrosity!

A spaghetti of transportation in Edgebrook on the northwest side of Chicago includes Devon, Caldwell, Central, Lehigh, the MDN Metra line, the bus stop for 85A, 226, & 84, and the North Branch bike trail

A dog in a cargo bike looks back nervously, on a tiny concrete island between a slip-lane and high-speed Devon Ave, trying to continue south on the north branch trail

Abortion is healthcare, and here in Chicago, we need Alderpeople we can trust to protect our rights. Jim Gardiner has not earned that trust, and won’t fight for us, but I will.

Statement: June 24 is the four year anniversary of the Supreme Court’s disastrous anti-abortion decision in the Donna case, which was the culmination of years of Republican organizing to overturn Roe v Wade and strip pregnant people of their rights. Continuing to protect abortion rights in Chicago is critical, as people from surrounding states with abortion bans are forced to travel here to access healthcare.

As a member of City Council I pledge that I will support access to and funding for reproductive healthcare. In particular I will work to safeguard the physical clinic spaces, which current Alderman Jim Gardiner refused to do in 2024 when he voted with the council’s right wing bloc against establishing a protective quiet zone to stop harassment of patients.

Jim Gardiner thinks Chicago taxpayers owe him $1 million for his emotional distress. This man isn’t fit to represent us. Join me to organize to toss him out of office.

As I’ve been knocking doors across the 45th Ward, residents have noted that Gardiner has been even more “absent” than usual. Now we know why: he’s been focused on getting a payout on his way out the door. Follow our campaign for real representation, and find ways to help, at bit.ly/sgdnewsletter

Long overdue - these charges were bogus from the start and any Chicago jury would see through the Trump Administration’s lies.

Democratic primary voters are becoming increasingly aware of how AIPAC, super PACs, and the billionaires who back them, are attempting to corrupt and control our politics. Read more in my op ed: www.chicagotribune.com/2026/04/09/opinion-aipac-election-funding-super-pacs/

Right-wing politicians, from the President to Ald. Jim Gardiner, use fear and anti-immigrant rhetoric to keep us divided. Shame on them. Read my letter to the editors of the Sun-Times: chicago.suntimes.com/letters-to-t...

A letter to the editors of the Sun Times against racist attempts to stir up fear against immigrants by right wing politicians.
