I am thrilled to celebrate my successor, Donna Miller, a proven public servant whose leadership on the Cook County Board and commitment to equity will serve the Second Congressional District well.


I would also like to congratulate my Constituent Services Director, Mary Catherine Roberson, who flipped a seat in the Illinois House and will now represent the 104th District. Her care for others and desire to serve will benefit her constituents immeasurably.


Our state’s strength lies in its diversity, and as the congressional delegation carries this work forward, we remain dedicated to serving every community across Illinois.
