🇺🇸 Happy Labor Day! 🇺🇸

Today, we honor the hardworking men and women who keep our communities, our state, and our nation moving forward. From teachers and healthcare workers to tradespeople, first responders, small-business owners, and working families; your hard work matters, and your voice matters.
As your next State Representative, I’ll keep fighting for good-paying jobs, fair wages, affordable living, and opportunities for every working family.

Enjoy this Labor Day with your family and loved ones. Thank you for all that you do!

HONORED TO BE ENDORSED BY THE LAKE COUNTY DEMOCRATIC WOMEN

I am deeply honored to receive the endorsement of the Lake County Democratic Women in my campaign for Illinois State Representative in District 64.

Fighting for women’s rights, healthcare, equality, and the opportunity for every woman to live with dignity and make her own decisions is deeply personal to me.
I was blessed to grow up as the brother of 10 sisters. Today, I am also the proud father of three daughters, grandfather to two granddaughters, and uncle to many nieces. The women in my family have shaped who I am, taught me strength, resilience, compassion, and what it means to stand up for the people you love.

So when I talk about protecting women’s rights, expanding access to healthcare, achieving equal opportunity, and ensuring that women have a voice in the decisions that affect their lives-this isn't just a campaign issue for me. It’s personal.

As your State Representative, I will stand with women and fight for:

*Reproductive freedom and access to healthcare
*Equal pay and economic opportunity
Safe communities and protection from violence
*Affordable childcare and support for working families

The right of every woman to have a voice in her own future.

I am grateful to the Lake County Democratic Women for their confidence and support.

This campaign is about fighting for every family, every community, and every person who deserves a fair shot at a better tomorrow.

Thank you for believing in me. Let's keep fighting—and let's win this together!

🚪 We were out in Antioch today, knocking doors and talking with voters!
We were working together to support Karen Batagalia for State Senate, Jose Martinez for County Board, Sandy Hart for Lake County Treasurer—and AJ For State Rep! 💪🏽🇺🇸
This is how we win elections: one door, one conversation, one vote at a time.

🗳️ Early voting starts September 24th!
We’re out here working—and we’re just getting started!

WOW, what an amazing event. The fundraiser for my campaign was a huge success. I want to thank the 100 plus supporters who attended. Some came as far as Indiana and the Southside of Chicago and McHenry County. The energy in the room was electrifying, and all the speakers were enthusiastic, encouraging, inspiring and uplifting.

Today was a GOOD DAY! 🔥

I had an amazing time at the McHenry County Democratic Summer Candidate Cookout! The energy was incredible, the food was delicious, and the candidates were FIRED UP! 🇺🇸🔥

But the best part? The incredible turnout and the opportunity to have real conversations with voters and fellow candidates. The attendance was beyond anything I could have imagined!

This is what grassroots politics is all about—community, conversation, energy, and working together to deliver results for the people we serve.

We’re just getting started! AJ FOR STATE REP! 💪🔥

🔥 WOW… WHAT A WEEK ON THE CAMPAIGN TRAIL! 🔥

What a week it was! We were out there, in the community, and talking with the people across District 64!

🇺🇸 Marched in the Lindenhurst Lindenfest Parade
🎡 Spent three days at the McHenry County Fair meeting voters and visiting exhibits
🎙️ Joined Patty Vasquez on talk radio
☕ Talked with voters at a community coffee in Antioch
👶 Even found time to hold a few babies!
🍽️ Had lunch with Congressman Brad Schneider and fellow candidates
🏢 Attended the opening of my good friend Karen Batagalia’s campaign office in McHenry as she runs for State Senate
🤝 And, of course, spent time talking directly with voters in McHenry
This is what campaigning is all about — showing up, listening, meeting people, and earning your vote one conversation at a time.
We’re building this campaign from the ground up, and I’m more motivated than ever to keep fighting for the people of District 64.

And yes… I’m STILL FIRED UP! 🔥

AJ FOR STATE REP
Fighting for you. Fighting for our communities. Fighting for results.

MCHENRY COUNTY FAIR

Had a great time at the McHenry County Fair today! 🎡🇺🇸
I enjoyed visiting the different exhibits, meeting local families, and most importantly, listening to the people who make our community so special.
As a candidate for State Representative in District 64, I believe being present, listening, and staying connected to the people I hope to represent is what public service is all about.
I’m out here, I’m listening, and I’m FIRED UP! 🔥

Lindenhurst showed up—and we were FIRED UP! 🔥🇺🇸

I chose to walk the parade route because that’s who I am—I want to be close to the people I’m fighting to represent. I want to shake your hand, hear your voice, and look you in the eye.
The energy, the cheers, and the support for AJ for State Rep were incredible! 🙌🏾

I’m not running to ride above the people—I’m running to walk alongside them.

Let’s keep this movement FIRED UP! 🔥
