Amy Rule
Amy Rule is the proud wife of Chicago mayor, Rahm Emmanuel –who’s been serving in the role since 2011.
Amy’s husband is grabbing headlines for his strong sentiment to the case of actor, Jussie Smollett. Smollet’s criminal charges for filing a false report –were recently dropped, however, Rahm feels that this shouldn’t have happened. During a press conference he called prosecutors’ decision and the amount of resources the city spend investigating the crime a “whitewash of justice.”
Rahm graduated from Sarah Lawrence College and obtained a Master’s Degree in Speech and Communication from Northwestern University.
Early in his career, he became a key member of the Clinton administration from 1993 to 1998, rising to serve as Senior Advisor to the President for Policy and Strategy. He also served under President Barack Obama as the White House Chief of Staff.
Prior to becoming Mayor, he served three terms in the U.S. House of Representatives representing Chicago’s 5th District. He is credited with attracting numerous companies to Chicago and helping to build the next generation of start-ups.
Rahm is happily married to wife, Amy with whom he has three children.
