Issue Position

The scientific community has presented indisputable evidence of substantial climate change resulting from greenhouse gas emissions and industrial pollution. Elected leaders need to take charge on this issue, and Will's prepared to do so. As a journalist, he shed light on politicians who took campaign contributions from some of Chicago's biggest polluters. As State Representative, he will advocate for clean energy policy and responsible political leadership.

What Will's going to do:

Work for job-training programs that put people to work weatherizing buildings and learning the new trades of a clean energy economy

Ensure that all 39th District residents have the green space they need in their neighborhoods to enjoy recreational opportunities

Push for known polluters to regulate their toxic emissions--and demand that his fellow elected leaders stand up for public health
