Chicago City Treasurer Melissa Conyears-Ervin announced the creation of an exploratory committee to challenge 26-year-incumbent U.S. Rep. Danny Davis in next year's Democratic primary.
Chicago City Treasurer Melissa Conyears-Ervin waves while walking down Broadway during the Pride Parade on Chicago's North Side on June 26, 2022.
“I’ve lived in this district my entire life and I understand the bold leadership that is needed to breathe new life into our communities,” the two-term city treasurer said in a statement. “We all deserve a quality education, economic opportunities, and a safe neighborhood — no matter where we are born. It’s been my mission to serve, and I am ready to put myself forward.
U.S. Rep. Danny Davis speaks about his endorsement of then-mayoral candidate Brandon Johnson in the Loop on March 6, 2023. Both Ervins were allies of Mayor Lori Lightfoot before shifting their allegiance to Mayor-elect Brandon Johnson. She was named an inaugural chair to Johnson’s transition team.
