Petition season is here and it was great spending my Sunday afternoon with the Kendall County Democrats! 🖊
The @KCDemocrats are fired up and ready to knock on doors, make phone calls and get Democrats elected up and down the ticket!
Good evening, @KCDemocrats!
I was so happy to be here today with you at the Fall Fest. The signs of fall are finally here — the leaves are changing, the air is crisp, and democracy is on the ballot. This November, vote BLUE!
@LukeWarfordTX @laurabray We love your excitement and can feel it all the way from here in Kendall County, Illinois! Keep up the good work of getting Democrats elected up and down the ballot!
In almost every corner of our state, I’ve heard from Illinoisans that rising costs are an ongoing concern.
You deserve a governor who works for you. That’s why I’m helping you weather the impacts of inflation by cutting and suspending taxes and sending direct checks to families.
Raffling off assault weapons in a political fundraiser is inappropriate and offensive, especially right now. We hope the Kendall County GOP will come to its senses and cancel this raffle.
“It is just plain wrong to use a gun this similar to the one used in the Highland Park shooting for a political fundraiser,” Shanley said.

"Kendall County Democratic Party Chair Brooke Shanley said local Democrats, 'do not oppose responsible gun ownership. But we also do not need more military-style assault weapons in Kendall County,' Shanley said in a statement."
Illinois Democrats criticized plans by the Kendall County Republican Party to raffle off a Smith & Wesson semi-automatic rifle similar to the one authorities say was used at the Highland Park Fourth of July parade shooting. https://t.co/YbDQ6fuvWe

As we celebrate Pride, we continue to focus on doing the work to create a society in which all can freely live their most authentic lives and thrive. #lgbtqrights#humanrights#Pride
Republicans love to attack me as a big spender. Let's compare the facts.
Under my predecessor, the deficit exploded, rising every single year. Under my plan, we are on track to cut the federal deficit by $1.5 trillion by the end of the fiscal year.
Let me be clear: this has always been the GOP’s ultimate goal. For a party that claims to be about freedom, Republicans can't wait to deprive millions of women the right to choose.
As long as I’m governor, Illinois will stay a beacon for reproductive freedom.
We won’t go back.
When we took office, we made one thing clear -- working families come first.
And that’s why we’re putting money directly in the pockets of 90% of Illinoisans. https://t.co/lvlOItJDSV
Let me tell you what our new budget looks like for our kids: we’re improving our schools, paying for textbooks and classroom upgrades, and making child care more affordable than ever.
We’re making sure Illinois kids have everything they need to reach their full potential.
