John, I’m not like your typical member of Congress.
Most members of Congress grew up in wealthy families. My biological mother suffered from substance abuse disorder, and my adoptive parents were a social worker and a civil rights lawyer.
Most members of Congress went to elite universities. I was born hard of hearing and struggled in school. Making it to college was a massive achievement.
Most members of Congress worked lucrative jobs. I was a community organizer, mobilizing my community around issues like raising the minimum wage and expanding voting rights.
Most members of Congress are white Christian men. I’m a proud Black Jewish man.
And John, while some might view my background as a negative, I don’t. Because Congress should look like us – the 99%, not the 1%.
Not all of us have picture-perfect stories. In fact, almost none of us do. But I’m proud of what I’ve overcome, and I’m ready to fight for everyone who’s had the deck stacked against them in Congress.
But running for office wasn’t designed for people like us, and if grassroots supporters like you don’t step up to help, my chance of winning this seat are slim to none.
So if you’re ready to send a member of the 99% to Congress who knows what it’s like to struggle and overcome adversity, then please, give $27 before midnight. >> ([link removed])

State Senator (D-IL)

Robert Peters knows what it means to defy the odds. Born deaf to a mother battling addiction and raised by a social worker and a civil rights attorney on the South Side of Chicago, he learned early on what it means to fight for justice and care for the community.
That’s why he became a public servant—to build systems that work for all people.
Now, Robert is ready to take that fight to Washington and build an Illinois that works for all of us—not just the wealthy or well-connected. But he can’t do it alone.
So please, will you become a Founding Donor today and power this people-first, grassroots movement? >>
