Support Chicago’s world-class hospital systems and local community health centers.

Evidence
Quigley said he secured nearly $18 million in FY26 Community Project Funding, that all 15 of his requests were included in the final government funding legislation, and that the approved projects would "support and expand essential services in our community, from transportation and urban development to safety and public health."
Quigley announced he had submitted 15 community projects for funding consideration and said he had been "proud to secure over $40 million in funding so far to support local projects across our district." The listed projects included health-related items such as the Illinois Masonic Dental Clinic and the Night Ministry's Health Outreach Bus.
Assessments
The promise was broad and support-oriented rather than a measurable pledge to enact a single policy. Evidence shows Mike Quigley materially advanced and secured appropriations for district health-related projects, including the Illinois Masonic Dental Clinic, the Night Ministry Health Outreach Bus, and other public-health-related local funding. That demonstrates real support for community health providers during his term. But the record provided does not show a clear, districtwide delivery specifically for Chicago’s major hospital systems and local community health centers as a whole, so full delivery is not established.
Quigley materially supported Chicago-area health-related services through federal community project funding during his current House term, including clinic and mobile health outreach projects and broader public-health local funding. However, the evidence does not show full delivery of the broader promise to support Chicago's world-class hospital systems and local community health centers as a class, nor a clear hospital-system-specific outcome. This warrants partial credit rather than full delivery.
