Last year, Paul Vallas helped raise funds for anti-LGBTQ group Awake Illinois. Vallas's anti-LGBTQ actions over the past quarter-century point to a pattern: When he’s been in a position of power & authority, he’s used that power & authority to harm #LGBTQ civil rights.🧵 (1/2)

The reporting on this is terrible. The ballot measure that Ray Lopez is proposing is a non-binding referendum, so no laws would change - our sanctuary status has NOTHING to do with the asylum crisis. Rooted in Xenophobia.

We all want safe neighborhoods. Ensuring we're all safe in the 26th Ward means addressing root causes of crime. I'm a product of HQ programming & restorative justice. I know what it feels like to lose loved ones to gun violence, to lack safety & the tools to cope w/trauma - (1/2)
