Hakeem Jeffries wants to squeeze another Democratic seat from Illinois. Ben riffs. Anthony Driver, Jr on why he wants to go to Congress. And how Chicago police tactics compare with ICE’s. And how his high school, named for one of the country’s greatest novelists, turned its library into a detention center. Anthony is a Democratic candidate for Congress in the 7th district and executive director of SEIU Illinois State Council. His views are his own.
