Hi, neighbor! My name is Omari Bektemba, and I’m running to become the next Alderperson of Chicago’s 35th Ward. I believe social justice and better government services are not in conflict with fiscal responsibility and bureaucratic reforms- rather, they are supported by it! My goal is to use my experiences in education, affordable homebuilding, and urban planning to ensure the Ward has a more well-rounded, thoughtful, collaborative, and responsive approach to governance.
Chicago is a world-class City without the world-class government leadership. Together, we will fight for the working class, local businesses, safer streets, and better schools in the Ward, and in all corners of the City.
