A campaign website has been launched in support of the countywide judicial campaign of 21st Ward Ald. Howard B. Brookins, Jr. That's a link to the campaign website in the preceding sentence; a link has been added to the candidate list in this site's Sidebar.
Licensed as an attorney in Illinois since 1988, according to ARDC, Brookins practices law from an office in Chicago's Loop. He is serving his 5th term as alderperson, according to his campaign website.
Brookins has also served, according to his campaign website, as an Assistant Cook County State's Attorney, as an Assistant Public Defender, and as a Special Assistant Attorney General.
According to his campaign bio, Brookins has overseen "the growth and development of the 83rd Street Business Corridor, which houses the Walmart Shopping center, Lowes, Aldi’s and many other banks, restaurants and businesses." He also claims credit "for the renovations of the Woodson Regional Library, Studio Movie Grill, and the 87th Street Red Line Station."
Brookins is a member of "numerous social and professional associations," according to his campaign website, including Prince Hall Mason Eureka Lodge #64, the Board of Directors for Community Media Workshop, the Board of Directors for Northern Illinois Alumni, and Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity.
This is Brookins' second run for judge. He filed for a 2nd Subcircuit vacancy in the 2018 election cycle, but was removed from the ballot. In his present campaign for the countywide Breenan vacancy, Brookins enjoys the endorsement of the Cook County Democratic Party.
