Hi Friend, it’s U.S. Senator Dick Durbin.
I was elated when I got the news that Eric Sorensen had been elected in Illinois’ 17th District. I had the opportunity to meet with him before his election, and it was immediately clear that he had our constituents' best interests at heart.
Now that he’s in Congress, he’s been a reliable ally in our work to deliver for the people of Illinois – on clean water investments, supporting the renewable energy transition, and so much more.
Now here’s the bad news:
National Republicans are attacking Eric relentlessly, and a new GOP opponent announced a bid to try and flip his seat red. Because Eric was just elected, they see him as a top target to go after in their effort to keep the House in Kevin McCarthy’s control.
Eric’s been fighting hard for the people of IL-17, and it’d be a big loss for our state if the GOP gets their way. That’s why I’m hoping you’ll join me in bolstering his re-election campaign with a donation today.
Please send in $3 to keep Eric in Congress and boost our chances of retaking the House.
If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately:
Here's the truth: The House will be won or lost in Illinois. We did an incredible job getting Eric across the finish line in 2022, but national Republicans are focusing major resources on newly-elected Democrats like Eric.
Early resources are crucial to setting the right tone and building momentum. So I hope you'll chip in to Eric's campaign today.
Every dollar given today will go directly to work keeping IL-17 blue and fending off the vicious attacks against Eric.
Thank you for your support, friend.
Dick Durbin
