Willie Preston has earned everything he got - starting off as a janitor, a butcher and a union carpenter . And now he's running for Congress in the Second Congressional District as "One of Us" - a leader who has lived the struggles and the triumphs of Chicago and the Southland. Since his upset victory to the Illinois State Senate in 2022, Willie has stood up for our values, shining a spotlight on the Black mortality gap, promoting apprenticeships, seeking dignity for the formerly incarcerated and standing up for our rights.

Tomorrow marks one month until Election Day.
ONE MONTH. That's all that left. The fact of the matter is this race is wide open.
And I want to be clear about something right now:
This race is NOT going to be won by outside, deep-pocketed dark money groups — even though they’ve already poured millions into this district — the exact type of stuff voters are sick and tired of.
This race is NOT going to be won by irrelevant out-of-state endorsements from people who couldn’t point to IL-02 on a map.
And this race is NOT going to be won by the expensive political consultant class who treat campaigns like marketing experiments instead of movements.
This race IS going to be won the way real change is always won — by outworking everyone else.
By knocking more doors. By having more real conversations. By earning more trust, one voter at a time.
And if there’s one thing you should know about me, it’s this:
I’ve been outworking folks my entire life.
I didn’t grow up with connections. I worked as a janitor. A butcher. A union carpenter. I’ve raised six kids. I’ve fought in rooms that weren’t built for people like me. Nothing was handed to me — I had to hustle for it.
So when I say I’m ready for these next few weeks, I mean it.
We’re going to show up in every neighborhood. We’re going to talk about affordability, healthcare, jobs, and safety — because that’s what working families care about. We’re going to build something that no dark money group can buy and no consultant can manufacture.
But I can’t do it alone.
If you believe this district deserves a working-class fighter in Congress — not another insider — then I need you with me right now.
Chip in whatever you can to help us power this final stretch.

Let's prove the working-class can win big.
In the struggle,
Senator Willie Preston
