Thank you for taking the time to learn about my priorities and about the 58th District. Superior schools, safe neighborhoods, affordable health care, efficient transportation, and freedom to make reproductive decisions are just a few of my concerns as your State Representative. I am your voice in Springfield on these matters and others that concern you.

My goal is to be a progressive, independent voice for the 58th District, which includes all or part of Bannockburn, Deerfield, Glencoe, Highland Park, Highwood, Lake Bluff, Lake Forest, Northbrook and Riverwoods. If you would like to discuss an issue with me, or arrange for a meeting with your local group, please feel free to contact me. I look forward to hearing from you!

State Representative, 58th District
