Had a great Meet & Greet in Rockton earlier this week! The turnout was so good we had to add extra tables. Unlike the #IL16 incumbent Darin LaHood, I’m not afraid to meet with regular people and hear their concerns. In fact, it’s one of the best parts of campaigning!

Are you ready to make history, flip #IL16, and take back the House?
The incumbent sits on $6.5 mil of corporate cash & he's gearing up to crush the first serious challenge he’s faced before it even starts. But if we stand together, we won't let that happen.

Yesterday was a huge day for everyone who believes in our campaign to flip #L16. We submitted over 2,300 signatures — 3x the required number to get on the ballot. We couldn’t have done this without the dozens of volunteers who worked so hard across the district over the last three months. Thank you!

A NEW ENDORSEMENT FROM A STRONG LEADER
I’m honored to earn the support of Rep. Maurice West, Assistant Majority Leader in the IL House. I’ve seen his conviction on issues from workforce development to mental health, always fighting for working families. Grateful to have him with us in #IL16!

Last week was incredibly busy & I enjoyed meeting folks across #IL16. I spent time in Winnebago, McHenry, Tazewell & Stephenson County, including the small town of Rock City, IL (pop. ~300)! Our campaign is building momentum and I’m meeting as many people as possible + listening to their concerns.

IL farmers are being squeezed. Costs rise, exports fall, fewer buyers and weaker prices. Even strong harvests bring losses, threatening family farms and local economies. We need leaders with the backbone to fight for fair trade and a farm bill that protects farmers.

It was a crazy busy weekend on on the campaign trail in the race for #IL16. I had events in Rockford, Byron, Pecatonica, the Galena Territory, and Dixon and met so many good people who are concerned about our country but fired up to make a change. We're well on our way to getting on the ballot!

✊ BACKED BY WORKING PEOPLE
Proud to earn the support of Iron Workers Local 498 in our fight for #IL16. I stand with the skilled men & women of Local 498 — for an economy that rewards hard work & dedication, not a race to the bottom. Grateful they have my back - I've got theirs.

Honored to earn my first endorsement from an elected leader: State Rep. Dave Vella! He knows what it takes to beat a long-time incumbent & has always stood up for working people. Proud to have his support as we fight for real change in #IL16.

📢 Proud to earn the endorsement of Teamsters Local 325, representing 1,000+ workers—drivers, dock workers, landscapers, public employees & more. Unions win better pay & benefits, but decades of attacks mean wages can’t keep up with costs. I’ll always stand with Labor & working families in #IL16.

🚨JUST IN: LaHood officially passes on the Senate & Gov races—2 contests he never had a prayer of winning.
What a surprise! I’m sure you’re just as shocked as I am.😱
Can’t wait to debate the current #IL16 rep & give voters the chance to elect someone who actually gives a damn about working people.

Another busy weekend meeting great people across #IL16! I met with folks in Streator and the next night had the opportunity to speak at the Bureau County Dems' annual John Mitchell Dinner. We're already building great momentum and it's really just begun! Thank you to all of our hosts this weekend.

Great weekend in Bloomington-Normal with Andrea & the kids—huge thanks to McLean County Dems!
Friday was ice cream & good convos. Saturday’s BBQ & Bags raised $7.5K for local races-proud to support.
We also showed the kids our Alma mater, ISU.
Grateful for a family that’s all-in on this journey.

Huge thanks to the Lee County Democrats for inviting us to join the Dixon Petunia Festival parade!
Great turnout, many cheers, and tons of positive energy.
We just missed the storms but our kids left with a huge candy haul and big smiles.
Can’t wait for next year! 🌸🍬

We had a great time at Rockford’s Independence Day parade with the Winnebago County Dems & leaders from across #IL!
I’m running for Congress because I love this country—and I believe everyday people must step up to protect our democracy & build a better future.

Grateful today for the working people who built this country. As we celebrate our rights, let’s remember the work still needed to protect them. It’s inspiring to see so many re-engaging in democracy. Wishing everyone a safe, peaceful Independence Day.

I have not been very active on BlueSky but I am committed to engaging more going forward.
Here is my initial reaction to the announcement that U.S. House of Representatives has approved the budget bill which will be signed by the President later today.
