CHICAGO. – State Rep. Justin Slaughter, D-Chicago, is inviting residents of his district to nominate local
businesses to be recognized with his “Good Neighbor Business Award.”

“It is important to recognize local businesses for their vital role of stimulating our economy and offering job
opportunities to our community,” said Slaughter. “I encourage residents to nominate local business owners to
recognize their accomplishments and efforts to make our community a better place to live.”

Slaughter is asking residents to nominate local businesses that have given back to their neighborhoods and
positively impacted their communities. In order to be considered, all nominated businesses must be located in
the 27th District, which includes Beverly, Chatham, and Morgan Park, Roseland, Washington Heights, West
Pullman and the suburban communities of Alsip, Blue Island, Crestwood, Orland Park, Palos Heights and
Robbins.

Residents can nominate businesses by visiting Slaughter’s constituent service office located at 1234 W. 95th St.
in Chicago or calling 773-445-9700.

“By recognizing local businesses with this award, I hope to bring awareness to consumers and help motivate
business owners to continue the good work they do in our area,” said Slaughter. “I want to remind residents to
support local businesses, and I look forward to reviewing the nominations.”
