Finally, the Illinois Democratic primary is approaching. As the field of candidates has narrowed, it has become more clear than ever that Democrats must unite behind one strong candidate, the one who has the best chance of defeating Donald Trump and restoring dignity and integrity to the White House.

That candidate is Vice President Joe Biden. I'm proud to have supported Joe from the start. He is a strong leader who will be prepared to be effective from day one.

I'm asking for your vote not just for Joe, but also for me as a delegate to the Democratic National Convention in Milwaukee this summer.  I'm looking forward to representing you and all the other Biden supporters in our district!

"We are in a battle for the soul of America. It’s time to remember who we are. We’re Americans: tough and resilient. We choose hope over fear. Science over fiction. Truth over lies. And unity over division."

--Joe Biden
