Rudy Lozano Biography

Rudy Lozano is one of the most popular and richest Politician who was born on July 17, 1951 in Harlingen, Texas, United States.

In 1982, Lozano entered the race for alderman of the 22nd Ward in the city’s 1983 elections, in an attempt to be the first Mexican-American elected to the Chicago City Council. He faced longtime alderman Frank Stemberk and though Lozano was defeated, failing to force a runoff by seventeen votes, he, along with his sister Emma Lozano, played an instrumental role in bringing Latino voters across the city to support candidate Harold Washington, who became Chicago’s first African-American mayor. His supporters alleged that voters with Spanish surnames were purged from the rolls, denying him the votes to force a runoff. Lozano continued his work in the ILGWU, becoming the chief Midwest field organizer through his work with tortilla factory employees and other low-paid immigrant workers.

On June 8, 1983, Lozano was shot to death in his home. A reputed gang member was convicted for his murder, but his supporters still contend that he was assassinated for his labor and political activities. Mayor Washington visited his widow at the home later that day, and said at Lozano’s funeral that he “was a man driven by a search for unity among people.” Lozano’s campaign manager in the 1983 election, Jesús “Chuy” García, went on to win a 1986 special election for the 22nd Ward.
