Hi friend, it’s Senator Tammy Duckworth.

I have a special request today—one I don't make very often. I'm asking you to join me in supporting Eric Sorensen's campaign to keep Illinois' 17th Congressional District blue. 

I'll explain exactly why your support is so important in a moment, but if you already know what's at stake, send in a contribution to Eric Sorensen's campaign today.

While Republicans were able to take the House by a thin margin, Eric managed to fend them off from this battleground district. And now the GOP will double down here in 2024 to solidify their weak grip in Congress. 

As you read this email, political pundits are calling IL-17 “the most competitive House race in Illinois,” and Republicans have explicitly called Eric out as a top target for this election cycle. 

What I appreciate most about Eric is that even though he’s made it to Washington, he's still that hometown meteorologist who made the decision to run a people-powered campaign that depended on individual donors – his neighbors. Running for Congress was a risk, but ultimately, his belief and values won over the people of Northwest and Central Illinois. 

Right now, we are in the homestretch of Eric’s first FEC deadline as an elected member of Congress. Your support will be critical in his and his team’s strategy to keep the GOP at bay and IL-17 blue:

Will you please make a donation today? Every dollar given will go toward re-electing Eric and helping Democrats win back the House in 2024. 

Thank you so much for your support, friend.

Tammy Duckworth
