Today, we saw people show up for what they thought were immigration check-ins only to be detained by ICE. These actions are an abuse of power, and we won't stand for them. Immigrants are part of our community, and we will stand in solidarity with them today and every day.

Always a joy to get to be a part of training up the next generation of civic leaders!.

Thank you to @senvillivalam for his partnership in drafting this resolution, and his advocacy on behalf of our public transit system! We urge state legislators to invest in public transit before it's too late.

Public transit is the lifeblood of our city. 1 million people use it every day to get to work and school, access childcare and healthcare, and support our economy. Nearly 1/3rd of Chicagoans don’t own vehicles and rely on public transit. We can’t afford not to address this issue.

Without funding, our transit system risks 40% service cuts, including the full or partial shutdown of 1/2 of CTA's rail lines and the elimination of 60% of bus routes. It's impossible to overstate how devastating the impact of these cuts would be to our neighbors and our economy.

Today we passed the Transit Reform and Funding Resolution out of the Committee on Transportation, which calls on the Illinois General Assembly to pass a transit omnibus package to address the fiscal cliff that our public transit system is currently facing.
