Annelise comes to The People’s Lobby after six years in the labor movement organizing hospitality workers in Boston and Chicago. At TPL, Annelise works on the Climate Bank campaign which focuses on making the “green transition” accessible to everyday, working class people in Illinois. Annelise is excited by the potential for public financing for energy-saving projects to link together many issues in our communities including housing, transit, and education. Annelise is originally from Minnesota, and plans to call the Midwest home forever.
