PLATFORM
As a wife, mother, and lawyer who has lived more than three decades on Chicago’s South Side, I share the same concerns as my neighbors in South Chicago, South Shore, East Side, Woodlawn, Hyde Park, and Kenwood – about jobs, the environment, schools, and opportunities for our children. I am asking for your vote to represent the 25th District in Springfield so that I can provide the active, dedicated, and focused leadership we need to turn our hopes and dreams into reality.
