Born in Puerto Rico she learned from Socialist how to organize a community to get the corrupt Puerto Rican government to bring water to her small-town.  She took the skills of organizing to her Chicago district to fight dishonest Chicago City Hall for better city service, improving schools, retarding gentrification, rent control and immigrant rights.  In this short video Rossana discusses her 4 years working with Working Families United which laid the groundwork that allowed her to win the Chicago City Council seat as the 33 Ward Alderman.
