2022
Anthony Curran completed Ballotpedia's Candidate Connection survey in 2022. The survey questions appear in bold and are followed by Curran's responses. Candidates are asked three required questions for this survey, but they may answer additional optional questions as well.
| Collapse all
- Crime: Chicagoans are suffering under an unprecedented violent crime wave, the Safe-T Act is seriously flawed. We all need safe streets.
- Educational Choice: the achievement gap has widened under Covid shutdowns and the families of Chicago need access to quality education immediately.
- Pension reform: the state has been saddled with untenable pension debt. We can't go bankrupt, but we're nearly insolvent and that doesn't benefit anyone.
Note: Ballotpedia reserves the right to edit Candidate Connection survey responses. Any edits made by Ballotpedia will be clearly marked with [brackets] for the public. If the candidate disagrees with an edit, he or she may request the full removal of the survey response from Ballotpedia.org. Ballotpedia does not edit or correct typographical errors unless the candidate's campaign requests it.
