Sign and Circulate Bill's Petition for Re-Election

Friends,

I am happy to tell you that I’m seeking re-election to the General Assembly as your State Senator.Through the years, I have always been encouraged by your hard work, your friendships, your advice and your encouragement.  Nancy and I cannot thank you enough for that  support.

I’m also humbled that my Republican colleagues in the Senate chose me as their new leader after the resignation of Christine Radogno on July 1.  On August 29, the Senate officially named me Senate Minority Leader for the remainder of the current General Assembly.  It is a position that I take very seriously and one that gives Downstate a new voice in the legislature’s leadership.

For the first time in more than two years, Illinois has an operating budget.  In August, the General Assembly approved a new education funding system that will bring greater equity and fairness to all 2 million schoolchildren in Illinois.  I spent many hours negotiating that plan with the Governor and other legislative leaders, and I am proud our cooperative spirit led to that historic agreement.

We are making gains toward a better Illinois with a Republican governor, but we still have much to accomplish.   I want to continue to work for practices, principles and priorities that will encourage job creation and retention, and rely less on tax dollars and more on efficiency and innovation to better serve the people of Illinois.

I am asking for your support and help again.  Getting petition signatures is the first step in my campaign for re-election next year as State Senator in the 44th District, which includes all or part of five Central Illinois counties.

Thanks.
