Who are your top three campaign contributors? We are a grassroots campaign. Our contributions come from ordinary citizens
Why are you running? Sen. Tammy Duckworth has been a failure. She hasn’t held up her end of her promise to fight for the people of Illinois, she has ignored the veterans, she calls for defunding police, stands with sexualizing children, killing our unborn, racist rhetoric of our white Illinoisans. Hundreds of people shot in Chicago, Sen. Duckworth cares nothing about the people. She is the pet of Dick Durbin. Her time has come to be a one-term senator.
What is the top issue in your race, and how would you address it? How our police and veterans are being mistreated. These men and women who fought for our freedom are not being cared for, fought for. I will change that. Protect our veterans. Thirty six veterans have died? And no investigation? This needs to be addressed. We care more about illegals than our citizens.
Why should people vote for you? I am the only candidate who has gone throughout the entire state, all 102 counties. I am the candidate who will answer to the people of Illinois...not the party. I will answer to the people not the party. I have proven myself to the people. The office I want to occupy doesn’t belong to me. It belongs to the people of Illinois.
