We believe the City of Evanston deserves better.
What does Evanston need in a Mayor?
We are currently compiling a list of the qualities and policy stances Evanston needs in a mayor. Select mayoral candidates in 2025 that meet these criteria will be given campaign donations collected via this website.
Current qualities and policy stances include:
Demonstrated commitment to supporting our teachers.
Biss, in attempting to take pension benefits away from Chicago Public School teachers, does not meet this criteria.
Demonstrated commitment to transparency in the political process.
Biss, who allowed the City to request court approval to bypass public discussions, does not meet this criteria.
A strong negotiator.
Biss, who considered accepting a $2.5 million deal in exchange for perpetual zoning rights from Northwestern while other cities have received more money from universities in exchange for nothing, does not meet this criteria.
