City Hall’s Silence is Deafening

For years, Rogers Park’s cries for help have been met with silence from Alderman Joe Moore and City Hall. Neglected streets, rising crime, and dwindling support for local businesses show their true priorities.

We must demand accountability and real action. Our community cannot afford to be ignored any longer.

Ignored by City Hall, Forgotten by Leadership

Rogers Park has been ignored by Alderman Joe Moore and City Hall for far too long. Essential needs like safety, infrastructure, and support for local businesses are left unmet.

Our neighborhood deserves leaders who act—not just talk. We demand attention and accountability from those elected to serve us.

Rogers Park will no longer be forgotten.

Leadership Should Mean Showing Up

When Rogers Park calls, City Hall doesn't answer. Alderman Joe Moore has become more visible at press conferences than on our streets.

Leadership isn’t about headlines—it’s about showing up, listening, and taking action. That’s not what we’re getting. And it shows.

Rogers Park needs leaders who are present—not just during elections, but every single day.

Promises Don’t Pave Streets

Election after election, Alderman Joe Moore and City Hall make promises to Rogers Park. But take a walk down our streets—you won’t find results, just potholes and neglect.

Words don’t fix infrastructure. Press releases don’t make us safer. We need leaders who do, not just say.

Rogers Park deserves action, not empty promises.

Accountability Is Overdue

For too long, Alderman Joe Moore and City Hall have ignored Rogers Park’s needs. The time has come to demand accountability and real leadership that puts our community first.

We won’t accept neglect any longer.

Rogers Park Pays the Price

We pay taxes like every other neighborhood in Chicago—but what do we get in return?

While Alderman Joe Moore aligns himself with City Hall politics, Rogers Park is left to deal with failing infrastructure, underfunded programs, and rising crime.

Our neighborhood is not a backburner issue. We deserve our fair share—and we’re done waiting for it.

Forgotten by the People We Elected

We elected Alderman Joe Moore to represent Rogers Park—but somewhere along the way, City Hall stopped caring. Our voices are dismissed, our concerns brushed aside.

We’re not asking for special treatment. We’re asking for the basics: clean streets, safe neighborhoods, responsive leadership.

If City Hall won’t step up, the community will.

Rogers Park Can’t Get a Call Back

Basic questions. Urgent issues. Repeated follow-ups. And still—no response from Alderman Joe Moore’s office.

Rogers Park residents deserve better than being ignored. If you can’t return a call, how can you lead a ward?

This isn’t just bad service—it’s bad leadership.

Who Is Joe Moore Listening To?

Because it’s not Rogers Park.

Residents call. They email. They stop by. And too often, they leave without answers. Alderman Joe Moore’s office has become known for inaction and inaccessibility.

Serving the public means being reachable. That’s not happening—and our community is paying the price.
