about us

People's Unity Platform is a city-wide multi-racial coalition of neighborhood, community organizations, and labor unions that have been working on issues around violence prevention, public health and safety, housing, public education, air and environmental quality, community safety, and workers' rights

Too often we have seen politicians use elections to make false campaign promises and try to divide our communities against each other. Chicagoans have come together under the People’s Unity Platform to make 2023 different. 

The People’s Unity Platform contains concrete solutions that uphold Chicago’s progressive values and would improve the lives of everyone in the city. This platform is not a complete list of the policies and changes our people want to see. This is a starting point of agreement. If a candidate seeking office does not support any one of these platform items it shows that they are not supporting Chicago’s Black, immigrant, and working-class communities. Our goal is to create a united movement across the city, ready to hold whoever wins accountable for moving these solutions forward.
