"I will work to bring good jobs back to Illinois, help municipalities upgrade their ailing infrastructures, and provide small businesses with the tools they need to thrive and flourish. I will push green energy principles that not only help the environment but also create income for Illinois. I will find a solution to our looming pension issues that ensures that the dollars people worked hard for will be there for them in the future without crushing the investment opportunities of future employees. I will make sure our disabled and elderly are taken care of and their needs are being met. As a veteran myself, I will find a means for our veterans to secure a solid future for themselves and their families once they leave the military."
"I hope that Illinois will stand up for itself and elect representatives that understand the true nature of today’s economy. As the sole income provider for a family of five, coaching, volunteering, and working three jobs, I understand what many of you are going through."
“By state law, we in Villa Park are required to have a balanced budget. Springfield doesn’t seem to be doing that. They don’t seem to be listening to municipalities in Springfield. We are on the front lines every day, listening to residents and providing services. We need more of those people in Springfield.”
“I’ve been to Glendale Heights, Addison, Bloomingdale and Wood Dale, and I’ve done a lot of work here in Villa Park, it’s going to be a tough battle.”
