The smell in the DNC’s big tent is terrible. These right wing super pacs are stinking up the joint.
I am so grateful to be in this fight with Consumer Reports to ban surveillance pricing in Illinois. We have an amazing coalition fighting for working families.
The work continues: This legislation would protect Illinoisans from price gouging and data privacy threats. We need to make sure working families have an easier time buying groceries and putting food on their table.
Congratulations, Commissioner Miller, on your victory. I look forward to working with you to fight on behalf of the communities of the 2nd District.
We worked hard, organized, and built a big coalition, but we couldn’t compete with the millions of dollars from Trump-aligned super PACs in this race.
We may have lost this battle, but we're going to keep fighting until we beat Trump and build a better world that we know is possible.
Happy primary election day, Illinois!
I'm proud to have endorsed @julianastratton.bsky.social, @junaidforus.bsky.social, @robertpeters.bsky.social, and @danielbiss.bsky.social in their races today. They will fight to take on corruption and lower costs for families.
As the polls close, I am so grateful for every voter, donor, and volunteer who joined this movement.
We’ve been outspent more than 11:1 in this race, but we haven’t been outworked.
I am so proud of everything we’ve built.

Time for a War Powers Resolution vote. Let’s get everyone on the record.
Out today supporting Robert Peters for Congress! @robertpeters.bsky.social
Trump is dragging us into another dangerous and illegal regime change war.
The American people—people from our communities—are the ones who will pay for it.
Every one of us must lift our voices forcefully right now against this. NO WAR WITH IRAN.
AIPAC is targeting me because they’re worried I won’t go along with their MAGA-aligned agenda in Congress.
They’re absolutely right.
Still thinking about @robertpeters.bsky.social's powerful reflections at our Every Life, A Universe gathering in 2024.
It’s easy to see why AIPAC is desperate to keep him out of office – he holds the “radical” belief that safety comes through solidarity, not nationalism or military might.
Working Families Party endorses Robert Peters, U.S. House, IL-02.
We’re endorsing @robertpeters.bsky.social for Congress.
From leading Illinois to become the first state to end cash bail, to serving as the Chair of the Senate Labor Committee, Robert has fought tirelessly for working families across Illinois.
We are taking on the Trump-aligned trifecta of AIPAC, AI, and Crypto super PACs. And we’re gonna win.
No war with Iran.
Why is Donna Miller staying silent on ICE accountability?
One reason: Trump 💰💰💰
This such important reporting on the tech billionaire bros buying Dems in primaries. So-called Fairshake PAC is lying about @robertpeters.bsky.social (using progressives messaging) because he passed a law in the IL Senate to protect seniors from scams and regulate big tech. #endcitizensunited
The pro-crypto super PAC, Fairshake, has almost $200 million at its disposal to buy elections in favor of politicians who'll work to make crypto billionaires richer.
The crypto industry is afraid of @robertpeters.bsky.social because he's committed to putting working people first. #IL02

Peters was my state legislator in Hyde Park. He’s as good as I’ve seen in Illinois
When Sen. Robert Peters spoke @netrootsnation.bsky.social in ‘23 I was VERY impressed. So of course crypto creeps are attacking him @robertpeters.bsky.social
Today, State Senator Robert Peters joined TPL, Physicians for a National Health Program (PNHP), and Citizen Action members for National Nurses United's Vision For A Healthy Society forum in Calumet City! We're discussing what it'll take to truly transform our system and advance health care justice.
