For years, youth organizers across Chicago, including the leaders at GoodKids MadCity, have been organizing, advocating, and showing what becomes possible when we trust young people. By investing in peer mentoring and youth-led peacekeeping, we are investing in safer communities—not only in the future, but right now.

What do the billionaires have to be upset about? There are cranes in the air, the city is safer, we have the busiest airport in the world, but they're mad because they have to wait in a longer line to get to me. I prioritize giving my time to working people.

Chicago will continue to have a "violence problem" as long as Red states continue to have a gun problem. The endless flow of illegal guns into Chicago can be traced to Red states like Mississippi, Indiana, and Louisiana. It is up to the federal government to step up and stop interstate gun trafficking networks.

Today, I signed an executive order establishing the strictest, most robust regulatory framework for data center development of any city in the country. Chicago is open to innovation and investment, but it must be done responsibly, transparently, and in partnership with the communities most impacted by rapid development.

I wake up every day and go to bed every night thinking about how we can build safer communities across the city of chicago. While our work is far from complete, I’m encouraged our efforts to invest in working people has led to the dramatic declines in violence we’re experiencing in our city. I find incredible hope and strength in knowing that there are people who are collaborating with my administration to do continue doing just that.

The Bears belong in Chicago. Ours is still the best, and only, plan for a publicly-owned stadium that enables them to stay on the most-visited stretch of land in all of Illinois.

I'm old enough to remember that the struggles of Soweto in South Africa and the Favelas in Brazil are interconnected with the struggles of Cabrini-Green on the North Side of Chicago.

Chicago is proud to celebrate the extraordinary contributions of our Mexican and Mexican American communities to this city’s culture, economy, and identity on Mexican Independence Day. From the 26th Street Parade to El Grito in Grant Park, Chicagoans will have the opportunity to celebrate together and celebrate safely. My administration has been preparing alongside our City partners to ensure the resources are in place to keep our residents and visitors safe as they celebrate throughout the next week.

The President is investing more to bomb children than to feed them. Trump has an open invitation to invest in the programs that have helped spur historic violence reduction efforts in Chicago and across the country, not to send troops into our cities.

There's no good reason to incentivize the Bears to leave the top tourist destination in Illinois or to gift them property tax reprieve when they already don't pay property taxes on a publicly-owned stadium. The Bears belong in downtown Chicago.

It's boneheaded to believe that you can build safer and more affordable cities by filling up prisons, rather than investing in communities.

You mean to tell me that in one of the wealthiest cities in the world, we can't figure out how to fund jobs for every young person who is looking for one? If Chicago is good enough for record-breaking numbers of visitors to spend their money in, then it better be good enough for working people to live here.

By denying Chicagoans the ability to weigh in on a millionaire's tax in upcoming elections, the majority of City Council has shown they have lost the plot. Most Chicagoans, and Americans, think the ultra-rich should pay their fair share to protect our public amenities.
