Twelve members of the Chicago City Council are not seeking reelection, which will mean nearly a quarter of the city will get new local political leadership in 2023.
The Get Stuff Done PAC has raised $1.74 million since early December, including $1 million from Michael Sacks, one of Chicago’s richest men and a frequent donor and adviser to former Mayor Rahm Emanuel.
For the City Council, the Chicago Tribune Editorial Board endorses Megan Mathias (45th), Kim Walz (46th), Isaac Freilich Jones (48th), Maria Hadden (49th), and Debra Silverstein (50th).
