Huge thanks to @abundanthousingil.bsky.social for their support!! Excited to work with them to tackle the housing crisis and make Chicago affordable!
More homes means more neighbors, more customers for local businesses, and fewer people getting priced out of the towns they grew up in.
James O’Brien is running for State Representative in the 13th district (Uptown, Edgewater, Ravenswood, Lincoln Square) with a plan to tackle our housing shortage.
