Fellow Republicans,

Republican Day at the Illinois State Fair was a tremendous success. Over 1,000 supporters came together to celebrate our shared mission to elect Republicans and hear from keynote speaker Gianno Caldwell. The strong turnout showed Illinois that our party is growing stronger.

Gianno Caldwell - Illinois Republican Day

Thank you to every State Central Committeeman, County Chair, Precinct Committeeman, candidate, and supporter who joined us; to our incredible Illinois Republican Tent volunteers led by Mia Ray and the Sangamon County Republicans; and to our grassroots supporters who traveled from all 102 counties in Illinois. Your dedication and commitment inspire our entire movement.

I’m here to tell you — America is back. America is stronger. America is safer. America is more prosperous — and it’s time Illinois caught up. For too long, our state has been smothered by incompetence, corruption, waste, and high taxes. Illinois families are tired of Democrat lies, tired of less safety, fewer opportunities, and more regulation.

Illinois Republicans stand for:
✅ Lower taxes
✅ Free speech
✅ Parents’ rights
✅ School choice
✅ Safe neighborhoods
✅ Affordable energy
✅ A free-market economy
✅ Secure borders
✅ Fair maps

Our mission is clear: bring relief to families crushed by the cost of living, reduce crime, and end the culture of corruption.

And here’s how we win: We swamp the vote.
✔ Early voting
✔ Vote by mail
✔ Bank Republican votes BEFORE Election Day

The party that votes for weeks beats the party that votes for one day. Let’s turn out, show up, and take back Illinois in 2026.Together, we will build a safer, stronger, freer Illinois — for our families, our future, and America.

Thank You for an Incredible Republican Day — please see our State Fair video library below. Next week, I’ll be in Atlanta representing the Illinois Republican Party at the RNC Summer Meeting. I’m excited to share updates from the meeting with you afterward.
