Thank you, friend. With your support in May, we met our online fundraising goal. I know the midterm elections seem far away, but early support is critical for building the groundwork we need to keep IL-13 blue for working families – every dollar contributed, door knocked, and conv…

My loyalty is to working families, not party politics.

Friend, It may seem early to make a real impact on key midterm races like mine, but here are a few reasons why your support – right now – is so important: House Republicans are hanging onto their extreme majority by a thread. Only three seats separate control, and if their budget bi…

Sick to my stomach

Friend, I’ve been sounding the alarm about the devastating impact that House Republicans’ extreme budget bill will have on millions across the country. Last week, Republicans betrayed working people by passing the largest cuts to Medicaid and SNAP in history. They slashed over hundr…

Two reasons for you:

Friend, With all the chaos from this administration dominating the headlines, it’s easy to lose sight of the races that can actually help flip control of the House so we can hold Trump accountable. IL-13 is one of them, and what happens here could shape the balance of power in Congre…
