President Tony Johnston called on the City Colleges Board of Trustees to join the campaign for progressive revenue in Illinois. We need to work together to demand full funding from the state. It's time for the ultra-wealthy to pay their fair share. #IFTStrong

MAJOR update: I'm honored to have the support of the 5,000+ members of @ccctu1600.bsky.social. Part of my own education came at a community college here in the 9th District, and I can’t wait to be a strong voice for college affordability and education workers in Congress!
