Become A Wallace Warrior!

Greetings,
July 30, 2014, I was appointed to serve the remainder of Rep. Charles Jefferson's unexpired term. I've been honored to serve the 67th District for nearly 3 years, which has included working to represents ALL citizens of this district through an unprecedented budget impasse which included the battle for a balanced budget that cuts spending but is fair, compassionate, and prioritizes those who need their government the most.

I hope you will
join me in the ongoing battle to protect our most vulnerable, fight for the middle class, and strengthen economic growth in our region!

Below you will see an infograph of just a few of the measures I backed during the current assembly and I am committed to continue to fight to:

-make sure the wealthy pay their fair share in income tax
-ensure equitable school funding
-provide true property tax relief
-protect the right to collectively bargain


and much more. 
Sincerest Regards,
Litesa

A copy of our report filed with the State Board of Elections is (or will be) available on the Board's official website (www.elections.il.gov) or for purchase from the State Board of Elections, Springfield, IL. State law requires political committees to use their best efforts to report the occupation and name of employer for each individual whose contributions aggregate in excess of $500. Political contributions are not tax deductible.

Senator Tammy Duckworth - Trump's unlawful request



President Trump created a Presidential Advisory Commission on Election Integrity. It's first order of business was demanding that states hand over voter data -- including names, birth dates, political affiliations, voting histories, felony convictions, military records, and the last four digits of voters' Social Security numbers.

This request goes against federal and Illinois state laws. Federal law protects state governments from having to comply with unnecessary, burdensome information requests, and the Illinois Election Code protects the confidentiality of voter registration data.

I'm proud to say that Illinois State Board of Elections just joined an overwhelming majority of states in refusing to comply with President Trump's request.

We all know President Trump's true goal is to find a way to put more voter suppression laws on the books. Demand he abolish this committee.

If you remember, after President Trump lost the popular vote by three million votes, he started making unsubstantiated claims that millions of voters had voted illegally in the 2016 election -- even though state and federal election officials have no evidence voter fraud exists.

That's why this committee is a sham. If President Trump was seriously interested in voting integrity, he would investigate our nation's vulnerability to foreign interference in our elections and the effect of state's strict voter ID laws on enfranchisement.

But rather than safeguard our election infrastructure or protect Americans' right to vote, President Trump is trying to take steps to suppress it.

Add your name to my petition and tell President Trump: Stop wasting taxpayer dollars on your witch hunt for voter fraud. Abolish this committee.

Thank you,

Tammy
