Currently Democrat, he previously was a member of the Republican Party, under which he served as a member of the Illinois House of Representatives representing the 24th district from 2002 to 2004.

Career

Aguilar served as a Republican member of the Illinois House of Representatives representing the 24th district from 2002 to 2004, becoming the only Hispanic American of his party in the General Assembly. Aguilar was defeated in 2004 by Democrat Michelle Chavez in a race that was thought to be non-competitive.[1] It has been alleged that Aguilar had originally asked Chavez, a friend, to run for his office as a "ghost candidate," so that he would have an easy reelection race.[2] Chavez unexpectedly beat Aguilar in the general election.

Aguilar later served as an elected member of the Morton College Board of Trustees.

On April 16, 2020, now a Democrat, he was appointed to the Cook County Board of Commissioners to succeed Jeff Tobolski.[3][4]

Personal life

His brother, John Aguilar, is also active in Republican politics in the northern Illinois area, and has served as a Township Trustee in Aurora Township, Illinois.
