Hi John, I wanted to reach out and share the great news:

Earlier this week, I submitted hundreds of pages of signatures to get my name on the ballot in 2024!

John, this literally could not have been possible without passionate and hardworking individuals like you. I cannot thank you enough for your support.

With your help, I'm one step closer to being able to continue fighting for 1️⃣ criminal justice reform, 2️⃣ public safety, and 3️⃣ workers' rights in the Illinois Senate.

But this really is just the beginning. I need your help to prepare for 2024, and that starts with meeting our initial fundraising goals. One of my last fundraising deadlines of the year is TONIGHT. Will you help me and my team reach our $1,011 goal with a donation of any amount? ([link removed])

Thank you,
Sen. Robert Peters

============================================================
Senator Robert Peters was born in 1985 deaf and with a massive speech impediment. His biological mother was addicted to drugs and alcohol, and his adopted mother and father were a social worker and a civil rights lawyer. He saw first hand the impact and devastation of the racist war on drugs.

As he grew up, he admired the work his father did as a civil rights and criminal defense attorney, challenging wrongdoing by the police. This combined with the effect of the criminalization of addiction, inspired his work on criminal justice reform rooted in the safety, freedom, and wellness of all people.

A defining moment for Peters was the Great Recession, as he struggled to find work and lost his parents within a year and a half of each other. He found his power through political organizing in solidarity with a variety of organizations in Chicago fighting for justice.

As a state senator, Peters has championed the end of cash bail in Illinois after years of organizing around it before becoming a Senator. This legislative session alone, Peters has passed six bills out of the Senate, as he continues to push Illinois forward as a leader in criminal justice reform and true public safety for all. He chairs the Labor Committee in the Senate and is Chair of the Senate Black Caucus. He is focused on environmental justice, racial justice, economic freedom, and public safety for all.
