Friend,
As we close in on Election Day, I’ve been spending
a ton of time meeting new friends ( and hopefully future constituents!) across Illinois’ 17th District. It’s been a blast, and I wanted to share some highlights from the trail.
It’s busy, exhausting, but I don’t take one second of it for granted. I hope you enjoy the updates, and can’t thank you enough for your ongoing support.
Thanks!

Earlier this month, I had my first debate against my opponent, Esther Joy King. It was clear my message resonated with undecided voters in attendance. Meanwhile, King doubled down on her out-of-touch, anti-choice positions.

I had the opportunity to meet with Honor Flight of the Quad Cities, a group dedicated to flying our veterans down to Washington, D.C. to see the memorials that honor their sacrifices. It was a privilege to stand alongside these great Americans in East Moline as they arrived home from their trip.

In Rock Island, I joined Illinoisans demanding action to protect reproductive rights, a critical issue at stake in this election. If elected, I will fight for the bodily autonomy of all residents of our district and our country.

Friend, I think traveling across the district and hearing from residents all along the way is one of the most rewarding parts of running a campaign. From the start, my objective has been to be a voice for IL-17 residents in Congress.
That’s how I’m running this campaign and it’s exactly what I intend to do if I’m elected next month.
If you’re on board, please chip in $5 today to give our campaign a boost in these final weeks. Any amount helps and will go a long way in helping us win this seat.
I appreciate your support. Expect more updates soon!
Have a great weekend.
Eric
