With this being the first FEC deadline for Democrats to push back since Donald Trump took office, we wanted to share a couple more ‘firsts’ you may not be aware of:
- Eric is the first trained meteorologist elected to Congress in almost 50 years (and only trained meteorologist in Congress today, by the way).
- Eric is the first ever openly LGBTQ federal representative out of Illinois.
- Eric’s first piece of legislation he introduced this cycle cracks down on scammers who impersonate others on phone or text and puts consumers first.
