Well written. Let’s not forget it was Commissioner Brandon Johnson that gave the 1st community session sharing info about Covid 19 when all other elected officials were silent

Julie, I am concerned about the lack of focus in this election on the major cuts being discussed and planned, and who's interests Johnson is really going to serve in office. Of course there is no question who Vallas works for.

But Johnson says, “There will be some tough decisions to be made when I am mayor of the city of Chicago. And there might be a point within negotiations that the Chicago Teachers Union quest and fight for more resources, we might not be able to do it. Who is better able to deliver bad news to a friend than a friend?”

I am so frustrated. I just can't bring myself to continue to support the more cuts to education, especially from one of our own.
