Chuy and Bernie are building a progressive movement alongside other progressive candidates for local positions:

Strong leaders like Aaron Ortiz, who at 26 years old is challenging the heart of the Chicago machine and running to be the next Illinois State Representative of the 1st District.

Powerful women like 28 year old Alma Anaya who came to this country as a child, lived undocumented and survived homelessness and domestic violence to now run for Cook County Commissioner of the 7th District.

Inspiring women like Delia Ramirez, an accomplished social service director, community leader and coalition builder now wants to be the next Illinois State Representative of the 4th District.

Dynamic educators like Brandon Johnson, an organizer with the Chicago Teachers Union and a father raising a family on the Westside of Chicago, now running to be the next Cook County Commissioner of the 1st District.

Advocates like Beatriz Frausto-Sandoval, a community leader and immigration attorney who has lived her entire life in the district she wants to represent as the next Judge of the 14th Judicial Subcircuit.

Together, these candidates represent the best of us and will champion the values of working people like Bernie and Chuy.
