Perhaps this is something the Cegelis and Duckworth supporters can agree on.

DRIVE PAC - Democrat Republican Independent Voter Education—or DRIVE—is the political arm of the Teamsters’ Government Affairs Department. Backed by one of the nation’s largest Political Action Committees, the DRIVE program has the resources to effectively support candidates who back Teamster priorities and oppose those who work against us.

They gave Roskam $5,000 last October. Why is a labor group giving a pro-business right-wing wingnut this money? Can anyone say backroom deal?
