As Mayor Brandon Johnson finished his first week in office, Chicagoans are watching closely. For Latino Chicagoans, public safety, the cost of living, job opportunities, and schools are some issues people hope to see the new mayor address.

Thanks to our sponsors:“This is a trickle-down effect that affects small business, which ultimately affects the communities where these businesses are found because it’s an ecosystem,” Flores said. “And I think we need to see more inclusion for small business, and this just creates a pathway for change in all different facets of industry.”

“Cost of living, inflation, spaces for young people to enjoy themselves and be safe are definitely a top priority,” Santos said. “We see that people are still trickling into the Gage Park Latinx Council Cultural Center. Last week, we had 15 people come in looking for housing resources and support that haven’t come to fruition quite quick enough.

Santos said he finds promise in Johnson’s stated intention to reopen shuttered city mental health facilities. Rios-Sierra agreed that a holistic approach to improving public safety is how she would like to see the Johnson administration proceed.
