Friend,

President’s Day has taken a whole new meaning for me since I’ve joined Congress.

Since my election, I regularly walk into the Capitol rotunda and sit by myself at night – right next to the statue of Abraham Lincoln who also served Illinois in the House of Representatives.

Sometimes I sit for a few minutes. Sometimes I need an hour or more. The silence of this building has a lot to say if you take the time to listen.

Not a day goes by that I don’t reflect on the honor of having your trust to work in this place. For decades as your Meteorologist, looking out for families in bad weather. And now as a Representative of my home state and for my hometown. 

While it’s not lost on me that the politics of hate and division have taken over the halls of Congress, I believe the light of tomorrow is brighter. I will never stop believing that our best days are when we work together to solve problems, not rip each other apart over our differences.

I didn’t think it was possible, but each day I’m prouder and prouder to be from the Land of Lincoln and represent Illinois’ 17th District in Congress. And I believe, like Honest Abe, that we will solve real issues with relationships and hard work.

Happy Birthday, Mr. President. As long as I’m trusted to serve IL-17, I will always abide by your lessons.

- Eric
