Nonpartisan

Carlos Ramirez-Rosa ran for U.S. House Illinois District 4 in 2026.

From the candidate’s public filings

Background

Rosa was identified by the Huffington Post as a progressive Democrat. He has been a member of the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA), supported Bernie Sanders over Hillary Clinton in the 2016 presidential campaign, and opposed some of the initiatives of Mayor Rahm Emanuel, a centrist Democrat, while serving on the Chicago City Council. He was the only alderman to vote against a proposed $95 million police academy supported by the mayor. In September 2017, state Sen. Daniel Biss (D), a 2018 gubernatorial candidate, selected Rosa to run for lieutenant governor on his ticket. Rosa left the Biss ticket less than one week after joining due to his refusal to oppose the DSA's support for the Boycott, Divest Sanction (BDS) movement related to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.[3]
