supervisor. meet his opponent, hopefully.

On 29 August I began my petition drive to challenge John Shimkus in the race for the Congressional seat in Illinois’ 19th Congressional District. I have met with committeemen and women and the key counties and have distributed my petitions to the 30 Democratic County Chairs in the district.

On Tuesday September 8, John Shimkus, a former Army officer, turned his back on his Commander-in-Chief. Mr. Shimkus did this dramatically and publicly as President Obama addressed the nation and Congress. Frankly, I believe Shimkus meant it to be the attention getting event that would dominate the news cycle. However, his fumbling colleague from South Carolina stole some of that thunder by yelling at our President "you lie."

Both of these men deserve to be removed from office. I need your help to do that to John Shimkus. Please contact my campaign and consider a contribution.
