: Ald. Raymond Lopez joins “Chicago Tonight” to discuss his run for mayor and his criticisms of Mayor Lori Lightfoot. Ald. Raymond Lopez said during an interview with “Chicago Tonight” on Thursday that he is determined to make history by becoming the first member of the Chicago City Council elected mayor and vowed he would not reverse course and run for reelection instead.
Lopez, first elected to represent the 15th Ward on the Chicago City Council in 2015, has been one of Lightfoot’s most frequent critics, blasting her approach to public safety, the COVID-19 pandemic and protections for undocumented immigrants. “There are some undocumented, relatively a small amount, who are committed to being a part of the problem in our city, and they should not be given the same refuge as those who come here, like my great-grandfather, in pursuit of a better life and trying to build an American dream for themselves.
