From our BEST Culture of the decade feature:
A truly dynamic duo on the local political stage, nothing truly passes muster for the (D)s these days without the approval and support of Carol Ammons, and her husband, Aaron. Between the two of them, they’ve held Urbana Council seats, served as State Representative and County Clerk. Their accomplishments are their own, of course, but there is no denying how powerful and influential the pair are.
And that is good news for all of us. Their causes? Social justice; racial justice and economic repair; women’s rights; queer and trans rights; environmental justice; strenghtening oversight on law enforcement; releasing voter suppression; union stewardship. More of this over the next ten years please. (Seth Fein)
