Campaign Updates
The latest releases, statements, and coverage from and about Joe for Chicago.
"The excitement and support for our campaign is driven by frustration with the entrenched political class and a desire for a new, fresh direction for our city. People want a problem-solver – not another politician."
"It's because I'm a political outsider, and it's because I'm not tied to the shackles of the establishment that limit people's ability to think critically," Holberg said.

"I'm encouraged that there are so many ordinary Chicagoans who are frustrated with the political insiders who are not solving real problems nor making the city better. It's clear people want a fresh perspective from an experienced entrepreneur, educator, and leader—not more of the status quo."
"This is an opportunity to continue to expand and deepen the commitment to serve other people that I've done my entire life." Joe Holberg believes his status as an outsider will help him succeed where he believes others have fallen short.
