Brendan Deenihan and Robert Boik, two members of the Chicago Police Department who left during Mayor Lightfoot's administration, have joined Mayor-elect Brandon Johnson's transition team to advise him on issues of public safety.
“I will do everything in my power to seize that moment to deliver as much as possible for people across Chicago, especially those who have been historically marginalized and ignored,” said Ransby, who is also an activist, journalist and author.
Smith vowed to increase opportunities for businesses owned by women as well as Black, Latino and Asian American owned firms to boost economic development across the city. Ransby and Smith will be joined by U.S. Rep. Delia Ramirez, who was the highest-ranking elected official to endorse Johnson on the day he announced his underdog campaign for mayor.
State Rep. Kam Buckner, who ran for mayor and finished in sixth place before endorsing Johnson in the runoff, will serve as a co-chair for the transportation subcommittee as part of Johnson’s transition.
