🧵This past summer I spent a lot of time going to police stations to support protesters who got arrested and beat up badly for protesting racist police violence. I witnessed people who I deeply love get seriously hurt. Hundreds of people were arrested.

I think Police shouldn’t conduct wellness checks. There’s a lot of other professionals better equipped to do that work. The fact that we spent millions of dollars on Police for “wellness checks” ( a definition of what this means wasn’t provided) during a pandemic is disgraceful.

So CTA is not running and bridges are up and we expect people to be home for a curfew announced less than an hour before it goes into effect? Let people get home safe. This is ridiculous.

As the only progressive Latina in City Council I’m deeply disappointed in Alderwoman King using her title as chair of our caucus to endorse Paul Vallas. It’s shameful to see how all of Vallas ties to right wing actors/ideology gets conveniently swept under the rug. This is sad.

She said “don’t come” to people who are trying to keep their children alive. As if the US bears no responsibility on the realities so many Latin American countries are facing. She said that the US has been trying to “collaborate” with the zone for a long time. The nerve.

What teachers are asking for a basic. Children and staff should be tested. Let parents opt out and do a universal testing program. Have vaccinations in schools. Allow a little time to get ready and let children connect online for a little bit. No one wants to shut down schools!
