Cook County Board President Toni Preckwinkle has worked hard to reverse public perceptions in the Arab American community that she does not support that community.
Preckwinkle does and Arab American voters should not confuse the mixed up politics of the Arab American community with mainstream politics.
Preckwinkle has demonstrated during the past two years (2018 to 2021) that she will defend the rights of Arab Americans and ensure that Arab Americans are included.
