Candidate Jonathan Goldman has spent the past 20 years doing advocacy work for nonprofit organizations to help the environment, public health, education, and conservation. Goldman, who also runs a consulting business called Advocacy Inc., has witnessed firsthand just how bad things have gotten in the state legislature, but because he has been able to effect positive changes from outside government, he now hopes to do so from within.
Goldman, if elected, would “restore fiscal sanity” and not let the state’s budget deficit continue to get worse, he said. The solution likely will involve some kind of tax increase as well as putting aside partisan debates. “The country is about to witness an economic revolution built on reducing pollution and addressing global warming,” Goldman noted.
Illinois should become a leader in environmentally friendly technology, “as green jobs will likely dominate in the future,” he said.
Meanwhile, improving education will involve creating preschool and after-school programs, recruiting effective teachers, and supporting school innovation. Goldman noted common sense gun control is needed to stop gun violence in Chicago.
