Donate to the DC 20 Alliance: Nassir, Rebecca, and Eric

Nassir Faulkner, Rebecca Kling, and Eric Smith are running for Police District Council in Chicago's 20th Police District.

Each of Chicago’s twenty-two police districts has a local District Council (DC), created in 2021 as part of broader police accountability reforms. District 20 is bordered by Lawrence Ave on the south, Peterson Ave (and a little bit of Thorndale) on the north, Lake Michigan on the east, and the North Branch of the Chicago River on the west.

Each DC has three elected members who act as a conduit for community input and concerns about public safety to flow from residents to the City of Chicago, and for information and resources from the City to reach residents.

Since their creation five years ago, District Councils have been most effective when the councilors are able to work together as a team. That's why we–Nassir Faulkner, Rebecca Kling, and Eric Smith–are coming together to run as the DC 20 Alliance. We will push for

• More Prevention
• More Accountability
• No Extremists in CPD
