We demand a transparent appointment process following the resignation of Rep. Thapedi. We need resumes posted publicly, a candidate forum, a Zoom link so people can participate virtually, and public roll call votes. #EndTheILMachine Sign our petition ⬇️ actionsprout.io/A84E2F
Heads up 11th Ward! If you live on/West of Halsted and north of 35th Street, you can get vaccinated at the United Center now (with appointment)
