A Message from Alderman Silverstein
“The 50th Ward is the most diverse and wonderful neighborhood in the City of Chicago. There is nowhere else where you can visit an Indian restaurant, a Kosher bakery, and a Muslim bookstore all within a few blocks. If you live here, you know how great it is. If you don’t, come on up and see what the 50th Ward has to offer!”
Alderman Debra Silverstein

I led a moment of silence at the License Committee meeting today in memory of the victims of the 9/11 terrorist attack and in honor of those killed by terror around the world, including Hersh Goldberg-Polin and the hostages who were murdered in Gaza.
