John — Donald Trump brought his presidential campaign and extreme MAGA platform to our turf today.

At the National Association of Black Journalists annual convention in Chicago, Trump did not hold back on spewing some of the most racist, bad-faith rhetoric we’ve heard:

On Vice President Kamala Harris: “I didn't know she was Black until a number of years ago when she happened to turn Black and now, she wants to be known as Black.”
On his presidency: “I have been the best president for the Black population since Abraham Lincoln.”
On ‘Black jobs’: “A Black job is anybody that has a job.”

John, we need your help right now to counter this threat. Will you contribute to our campaign to help Democrats secure the House majority and defend Illinois’ working families against this extremism?

Trump's campaign stop in Illinois is part of a desperate move to energize his base as Democrats rally behind Vice President Harris — all while sowing chaos and division.

Our MAGA Republican opponent, James Marter, is no doubt thrilled to have Trump in our state. Marter is in lockstep with the long list of damaging policies Republicans would love to unleash on the American people.

But we won’t let this threat go unchecked. Our grassroots team has always rolled up our sleeves and gotten to work, and we will do it again.

Let's show Trump and extreme MAGA Republicans like Lauren’s opponent James Marter the power of our grassroots team. Pitch in $4 today! Your support boosts our efforts to defeat MAGA extremism and protect Illinois' working families from their extreme policies.

By contributing, you help us maintain our campaign’s momentum and keep Lauren in Congress making progress on critical issues including health care access, climate change, affordable housing, voting rights, and more.

Our power comes from you, John. Thank you for helping ensure that Illinois stays strong and resists the MAGA agenda.

— Team Underwood
