Campaign themes

- Jobs
- Excerpt: "It’s no secret that unemployment rates in Illinois and across the country have skyrocketed. A little over 10% of the State’s population is out of work, struggling to find a meaningful source of income in order to provide for their families. High unemployment means fewer dollars re-invested in our economy."

- Ethics & Pension REFORM

- Energy & Recycling
- Excerpt: "Corruption in Illinois has caused citizens to lose faith in its government and made the State a national laughingstock. During freshman Senator Noland's first term, he developed a reputation as one of the leading voices for ethics reform."
