@JaymalGreen Hi Ja'mal, to set the record straight: I was not personally 'manhandled' by Ald. Ramirez-Rosa. I'd appreciate that you don't invoke my name without checking with me in the future. The easiest way to reach out would be ward11 @cityofchicago .org as I am not often on Twitter. Thanks!

As a lifelong White Sox fan, it was my wildest dream come true to throw the first pitch of the game! Thank you to Guaranteed Rate Field for inviting me as a guest of honor. Sending our players luck as they face off against the Los Angeles Angels. Go White Sox!

@Eapvar @BikingPeep Thanks for the heads up, I have asked parking enforcement to patrol this area more frequently. Re-striping and protecting the bike lane on 18th from Canal to Wentworth is also a priority. It's one of the spots we toured with CDOT commissioner Biagi a few weeks ago.
