Let’s stop talking about how to give people the bare minimum, and start talking about how to help Illinoisans thrive. When I get to Washington, I want to see a $25 minimum wage at the federal level.

With great sadness, we share that Ryne Sandberg has passed away today.










As some of you know and after much reflection, I've made the difficult decision to step down as Chief of Policy in the Office of the Mayor at the end of this year. It has been an incredible honor to work alongside so many talented individuals, tackling complex challenges and driving historic initiatives like One Fair Wage, Paid Leave, expanding mental and behavioral health services and expanding support for gender-based violence. I’m deeply grateful to my colleagues both in and across the City and the Mayor for the opportunity to contribute to such important work. I look forward to seeing these initiatives continue to make a lasting impact. Thank you for the chance to serve Chicago and for this humbling proclamation. — Umi Grigsby
