John, Kim Foxx has retained her seat as State Attorney in Cook County!
This is a huge win for criminal justice reform in Chicago. Kim can continue to fight to end mass incarceration and to hold law enforcement accountable.
This victory is another step towards dismantling the prison-industrial system that punishes our country’s most vulnerable.
We’re going to continue to face large well-funded challengers who will spend massive amounts to protect prisons. The second-runner up in Kim’s race had over $10 million fed into his campaign through his father, a private equity billionaire.
Today we showed that when people come together to build strong grassroots campaigns, when they show up through volunteering and contributing, we will win.
Thank you for standing with us.
Chris
