Several workers on Paul Vallas' Chicago mayoral campaign said they have not been paid for their work.
"We were the backbone to your campaign. So, please, pay us the money you owe us because we were out there spreading your name," said Jacob Malagon, West Lawn resident.
"Out there just trying to get people out there to vote, and we were promised the money, and we have no money," said Phil Garreau, Brighton Park resident. The complaints come days after Vallas' campaign filed a lawsuit against political consultant Chimaobi Enyia, claiming he was paid nearly $700,000 by the campaign to coordinate get-out-the-vote efforts in the Black neighborhoods, including removing "MAGA" lawn signs that caused controversy days before the election.
