John,

 

This week, we watched as Donald Trump took the oath of office and immediately signed a series of unsettling executive orders.

 

He targeted the immigrants, LGBTQ+ community, climate change efforts, and even birthright citizenship, as well as pardoned 1,500 January 6th rioters.

 

As expected, his rhetoric is as dangerous as ever, continues to incite, and the promises he's made are a threat for everyone in Illinois.

 

His policies, clearly influenced by the billionaires around him, won't fix our broken immigration system or alleviate the rising costs of groceries and rent.

 

Both his speech and his actions signal a challenging four years ahead for working families, immigrant communities, and LGBTQ+ people, which is why we need to act now.

 

As your Congressman for Illinois' 4th Congressional District, I am ready to stand firm against these harmful tactics and defend Chicago and Illinois' historic status as a sanctuary city, continuing to be a national leader in progressive values. 

 

But John, we can't do it alone. Will you help our team connect with the community on these critical issues and prepare for what's ahead by chipping in what you can today?

Sincerely,

Congressman Chuy García
