JULIANA FOR ILLINOIS
Team: One of my opponents has $20 million in the bank. You read that right: $20 million. That kind of money isn’t just a line in a budget. It means nonstop TV ads, high-priced consultants, glossy mailers, and algorithms working overtime to flood your feed. It’s what career politicians use to try to drown out grassroots support. But let me tell you something from the heart: That money can’t buy values. It can’t buy trust. And it sure can’t buy the kind of grassroots movement we’re building — one conversation, one contribution, one person at a time. We don’t have $20 million — but we have something stronger: you. If we’re going to compete with that kind of cash, we need to build the most people-powered campaign Illinois has ever seen. That means folks like you stepping up early and often to help fuel this movement. Can you chip in $5, $25, or anything you can today? Every dollar helps us close the gap and build the movement we need to win.
