Essential workers and working families are the backbone of our state. That's why we've raised the minimum wage, passed paid sick leave, and are continuing our work to ensure the safety of workers across the state. Working families are not “takers.” https://t.co/PqhSKDAmLW
Our state has suffered under Bruce Rauner and Springfield politicians who put themselves before their constituents. I’ll be a fighter for you in Springfield: https://t.co/9ZOKlxbhQm
“I never wanted to be a politician, but I’m worried about the world we live in,” he said. “You need to be a voice for people who don’t have a voice. I’ve always had to figure out a way to get things done. https://t.co/E56IeWk5wq
Starting Labor Day off with the Rock Island Labor Day Parade. I had a great time marching with Gregg Johnson @greggfor36 and other Dems in support of the hardworking men and women of organized labor. Happy Labor Day everyone! #UnionStrong
Had a blast marching in the Rock Island and East Moline Labor Day Parades. I’ve been a proud labor leader, member, and advocate, and will bring my heart for working families to Springfield. Happy Labor Day!
Honored to receive the endorsement of @afscme31. I’m a proud supporter of organized labor, and will be a relentless fighter for working families in Springfield. Onward. @AFSCME#AfscmeStrong
Today, @BruceRauner vetoed a bill that would make discrimination illegal in all workplaces in the state, something that surrounding states to Illinois have already adopted. Shamefully, my opponent @electneil
didn’t even vote on this bill. #HB4572
We canvassed East Moline today with a few very special guests! Honored to be joined by our democratic ticket for governor, @JBPritzker and @JulianaforLG, and our state Comptroller fighting everyday for us, @susanamendoza10. We have listeners and fighters at the top of our ticket!
Thanks to @CheriBustos for her leadership in Congress and for her help in this campaign to put working families first in the 36th district. Great luncheon today! #blue36
An attack on any family’s livelihood is an attack on all. Cutting programs that inform people of their rights on the job is a step backwards in the fight for better workplaces and protections for families.

Here I am with Randy and Barb Wlaskovich. Randy lost his insurance as a result of this reckless decision. We need to make sure people like Randy get the health benefits they’ve earned after a lifetime of hard work. #SCOTUS
Met retirees from the Case New Holland company who gathered at the Taxslayer Center. Hundreds of loyal workers were promised lifetime insurance benefits, but lost their insurance due to a reckless Supreme Court decision. #SCOTUS
Our team is out knocking doors everyday to speak with voters. Here is one of our organizers, Irene, battling the heat and spreading our message of putting working families first! #blue36
