We had a blast yesterday at the Working Familes Aurora's (WFA) Get Out the Vote Rally at the Roundhouse. The turnout was impressive as were the words from all of WFA's slated candidates. We've built a team of committed Aurorans who want to serve our city and all of our citizens. The energy was powerful and all were ready to close this deal this Tuesday, April 1st, for a better Aurora for all.

Big news!

Wow! This is huge! When I first started running for the office of mayor, I didn’t expect to get support from federal-level representatives who want to see our people-powered campaign win! They are not offering big dollars. They are offering shoe leather by coming out to knock on doors and tell voters why this election is so important! I’m truly humbled to have Representative Delia Ramirez join our campaign this weekend! We will be sending out a canvassing graphic soon! From Congresswoman Ramirez:

"I am endorsing John Laesch for Mayor of Aurora because I trust him to do right by Aurora's working families. John is leading a people powered grassroots movement and standing up against entrenched and corrupt politicians and special interests. John is committed to making housing and homeownership accessible and affordable, working to create living-wage jobs, and protecting all Aurora residents from Trump's extremist agenda. I am proud to endorse John because he is ready to lead Aurora into a new era of transparent and accountable government that works for the well being of all."
