Illinois
Running for: State Representative, District 112
which includes parts of Madison and St. Clair Counties
Katie Stuart is not a politician. She is a wife, a mother of two, and an educator. And she is fed up with political gridlock in Springfield. As a math instructor, Katie shows students how to solve complex problems every day. If elected, she will bring the same skills to Springfield and review the state budget line-by-line, to eliminate waste while protecting vital services. As a full-time representative, Katie will support a budget that helps middle-class families.
Priorities:
Support local homeowners and businesses; require voters to approve any salary increase for politicians; fight for funding for education and healthcare.
