Dear Friends,
Illinois families are paying more—again.
Governor JB Pritzker signed an $8 billion energy bill pushed through late at night and sold as “affordable.” It won’t lower costs, it won’t stabilize the grid, and it won’t protect families already struggling with rising utility bills. This is what unchecked, one-party control looks like in Springfield: rushed decisions, higher costs, and little accountability.
While Illinois Democrats continue down this path, the contrast nationally is clear.
Decisive leadership recently protected American lives as a Venezuelan narcotrafficker responsible for massive drug smuggling is finally brought to justice—a reminder that leadership matters.
Yet instead of welcoming safer streets, Democrats rushed to criticize the action and politicize the outcome. The partisanship of Democrats has reached the level of undeniable insurrection.
That same pattern shows up closer to home.
In other states, years of ignored warnings led to widespread misuse of taxpayer funds intended for vulnerable families. Investigations only began after whistleblowers were sidelined and oversight failed. The lesson is simple: when transparency erodes, trust—and taxpayer dollars—are put at risk.
Illinois should take that warning seriously. Unchecked power and weak oversight always raise red flags, and Illinois families have every right to demand openness, accountability, and responsible governance to prevent waste and fraud.
Whether it’s rising energy costs, government waste, or public safety, the difference is clear:
Republicans push for accountability. Democrats resist it.
With early voting approaching, now is the time to act.
Make a plan to vote early or vote by mail —know when, where, and how you’ll cast your ballot.
And consider serving your community as an election judge. Fair, transparent elections depend on citizens willing to step up. Contact your Local Election Authority to Apply.
If you want to strengthen your local Republican organization, contact the Illinois Republican Party to request trainings. From grassroots organizing to election integrity and voter outreach, these trainings help build confident leaders and stronger local teams. Request trainings for your local Republican organization here.
Strong parties are built from the ground up—by neighbors who care, volunteers who step forward, and leaders willing to invest in their communities.
Make a plan. Get involved. Help move Illinois forward.
P.S. Protecting election integrity and holding one-party rule accountable takes resources. If you’re able, please consider contributing to support get out the vote efforts, training, and election integrity across Illinois. Your support helps ensure our shared values are defended—today and for the future.
