Lightfoot will hold regular office hours to meet with students, faculty and staff during her time on campus.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;As mayor, she showed strong leadership in advocating for health, equity, and dignity for every resident of Chicago, from her declaration of structural racism as a public health crisis to her innovative initiative to bring mental health services to libraries and shelters. And of course, she led the city through the COVID-19 pandemic,&#8221; said Michelle A. Williams, dean of faculty at Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, according to CBS News.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/chicagos-lori-lightfoot-issues-state-emergency-over-influx-illegal-migrants-sent-texas-gov-abbott\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>LORI LIGHTFOOT ISSUES STATE OF EMERGENCY OVER INFLUX OF ILLEGAL MIGRANTS SENT BY TEXAS GOV.
