| Collapse all
- Illinois as a state and the 95th as a district deserves leadership that will put partisan politics aside and work for all of our futures. I am that leadership.
- Providing long-term sustainable solutions to invigorate our economy demands legislation that will support the small business owner and union member alike.
- The same commitment that I have made to serving our country over the last 13 years I make to serving the community that raised me.
Honesty.
Bi-partisan commitment.
Servant leadership.
It shows the beauty, tragedy, and resilience of a soldier's story.
