Arguing that a mayor who “cannot keep us safe” is a mayor Chicago “cannot afford to keep,” U.S. Rep. Jesus “Chuy” Garcia on Friday unveiled a sweeping plan to stop the violent crime that is foremost on the minds of voters.
Garcia joined the parade of mayoral challengers promising to deliver Chicago from violence after unleashing a blistering indictment of Mayor Lori Lightfoot’s leadership on the issue that was supposed to be her greatest strength as a former Police Board president.
