Ready for Some Good Trouble?

Hi Fellow Democrats,


The GOP economic disaster that passed last week will be devastating to our nation and millions of people. But we cannot take for granted that voters will hear the facts and hold Republicans accountable — that work is up to us over the next 18 months. An estimated 17 million people will lose their health insurance, and many hospitals will simply close, but most of that carnage will happen after the midterm elections.


I discussed next steps on the Patti Vasquez Show on July 3. The fight to hold Trump and the GOP accountable starts at the grassroots and local level. Now is the perfect time to get involved and help us elect Democrats up and down the ballot, starting right here in DuPage County.


Reid McCollum, Chair


P.S. - We have limited half priced tickets ($75) at the DuPage Dems' table at this year's IDCCA Brunch on Governors' Day at the State Fair. It's Wed. August 13 in Springfield.
