I am proud to support a progressive champion like Miguel Alvelo-Rivera because he has been on the ground with me doing Rapid Response and organizing to protect our communities.

If we're going to tax the rich and stand up to fascism, I need another unapologetic colleague in the General Assembly.

You all know one of the busiest times of year is when we’re in session in Springfield, trying to get a budget that actually aligns with our values, as well as other bills that will continue to protect and support our communities.

The yellow-backed graphic says "Our endorsements" and it features photos and the names of the following people: Congresswoman Delia C. Ramirez, State Senator Graciela Guzman, Alder Anthony Quezada, Alder Rossana Rodriguez Sanchez, and Commissioner Jessica Vasquez.

The image features the logos of the following groups with the red text "Our endorsements" on a yellow background with a teal border: Illinois Federation of Teachers, Girl, I Guess, Progressive Voter Guide, CTU, and Cook County College Teachers Union.

That vision has led our campaign to receive endorsements from CTU, Girl, I Guess, Congresswoman Delia Ramirez, State Senator Graciela Guzmán, Alderwoman Rossana Rodríguez Sánchez, Alderman Anthony Quezada, as well as organizations including Sierra Club and CCCTU.

The image features Miguel Alvelo-Rivera in a hat and long coat in front of a brick wall with white text overlayed on the screen that says NO CORPORATE DONORS. ❌

That means an unapologetic progressive vision: no corporate donors, and fighting hard for access to the things we all need and deserve, from quality healthcare to education to protection from fascism and its enablers.

A large group of people stand outside of a flower-decorated storefront holding yellow signs that say Miguel Alvelo-Rivera for State Rep 40th District and purple Graciela Guzman for State Senate signs.

This led to my community asking me to run for this seat, to give the 40th statehouse district real, people-powered representation for the first time in decades, frankly.

When ICE came into Chicago to a much greater extent under this Trump administration, I worked to protect our neighbors from ICE through Rapid Response and corner watch.

Hi there! We’re just starting out with Bluesky. My name is Miguel Alvelo-Rivera. I’ve been an organizer since I was 13, and have been leading a union that organizes with domestic workers and day laborers for the last five years.

I'm running for state rep in Illinois' 40th District!
