This past Friday, Agudath Israel of Illinois hosted mayoral candidate Paul Vallas at their offices, together with leading Chicago Rabbonim, lay leaders, and staff. There was a productive conversation about general concerns and challenges, as well as the specific priorities of the Orthodox Jewish community. "It's important we engage candidates to educate ourselves about their perspectives and educate them about our community," said Rabbi Shlomo Soroka, AIOI's director of government affairs. "It's often at this time that candidates are most receptive to listening to concerns and formulating opinions."
We will be hosting mayoral candidate Brandon Johnson at our offices next Friday. The mayoral run-off election is April 4th, which is the day before Pesach.
