The stakes of this election could not be any higher. Our state is drowning in debt and our taxes remain some of the highest in the country. Businesses are leaving and families are struggling to put food on the table. I’m running to bring relief to the working families being hurt on all sides: run-away inflation, higher taxes, and now skyrocketing energy prices.

There are few certainties in life, but one certainty is nothing will change in Illinois if Katie Stuart is re-elected. She has had 6 years to promote better business regulations and to help decrease our tax burden. Families and seniors living on a fixed income are struggling with rising energy costs. These skyrocketing costs compound the pain we feel from inflation are a direct result of bad policy decisions made by politicians like Katie Stuart. All Katie did in Springfield was take Mike Madigan’s money and vote the way the Chicago politicians wanted her to vote.

We have a chance to end the Democrats’ reign of incompetence. I will be the common sense, citizen-led legislator our district deserves. It is time we had a Representative in Springfield who will speak for our values.

I am the only candidate in this race who will take on the political insiders, support law enforcement and promote good business legislation. I will stand up for working families, senior citizens and focus on the issues that the people in our district are concerned about. I will support our schools and protect our teachers, while preserving parental rights.

It starts right here. Right now. The power is in your hands. One Person. One Vote. I urge you to send the political insiders a message by voting for me on Nov. 8th.
