Congratulations to every one who had a successful primary race, and really to every one who chose to put themselves on the ballot and try to step up to serve the public.
"It has been a tremendous honor to be chosen three times by the people of the 112th district to represent their interests in Springfield, and I am looking forward to the opportunity to continue to advocate for the Metro East by continuing to work to bring much-needed resources to our schools, bring sorely needed infrastructure improvements to communities in every part of the district, and create programs that will help prepare our workforce for high demand industries, allowing our businesses to have the staffing they need while putting people in good-paying, meaningful careers."
