Rogers Park Isn’t a Political Stepping Stone

It feels like Alderman Joe Moore and City Hall see Rogers Park as just another checkbox on a political résumé. Meanwhile, our real issues—crime, vacancies, crumbling infrastructure—go unresolved.

We’re not a campaign stop. We’re a community. And we’re tired of being used and ignored.

Rogers Park needs leaders who serve, not self-promote.
