Notable #ChiMayor23 campaign contribution:
In his $6,000 contribution to #ChuyGarcia, Leonardo Lopez of Los Angeles listed his occupation as dishwasher.

Here's how #NeilSteinberg of the #ChicagoSunTimes described the mayoral field in 2015, including a racist swipe at #ChuyGarcia: https://www.beachwoodreporter.com/top/the_tuesday_papers_450/
When #ChuyGarcia says this, I'd like to know just when the thought the Chicago Police Department was "on track."
“It shouldn’t have taken four years to get that done,” he said in an interview. He wants officers “to get out of their cars and knock on doors and rebuild trust. Trust is critical to getting the department back on track.”
Hey #Chicago mayoral candidates; "more cops on the street" is not a solution to crime. "Policing" with the same ineffective policies while expecting a different outcome is insane. WHAT WILL YOU DO DIFFERENTLY? #KamBuckner #ChuyGarcía #JaMalGreen #BrandonJohnson #SophiaKing #Lightfoot #RoderickSawyer #PaulVallas #WillieWilson
Progressive doyenne Bettylu Saltzman has donated $1,000 to mayoral challenger (and possibly the frontrunner) #ChuyGarcia.
