John, I know all about the power of community. At 21, I became the Executive Director of my local homeless shelter, and worked hard to make sure the people around me had the resources they needed to afford food, or find a job or whatever else they needed at the time.
While it wasn't easy, I saw firsthand just how much we can do when we all come together. That's what inspired me to run for office in the first place, and with the support of people across our community, I've been a champion for our biggest issues in elected office since 2018.
And we've accomplished so much together – with you in mind, I've fought to expand healthcare to Illinois seniors regardless of immigration status, I've re-introduced the American Dream and Promise Act in the House, and just recently, my bill to restore defrauded veterans' education benefit was just sent over to the Senate!
Now, I'm running for Congress again because the work to make IL-03 better isn't over. But as we work against my GOP opponent, my team and I need your help to secure essential campaign materials, connect with voters, and share my passion for serving our residents!
Our End of Month Fundraising Deadline is the perfect opportunity to show your support. But time is running out to meet our goal – will you rush in a donation of $15, $35 or $50 to make sure we reach it?
