IL-08 Deserves Better

Building a future where Americans can thrive, not just survive.

Hi Jason,   On March 17, voters in Illinois' 8th District will choose our Democratic nominee.   This race is about integrity. It's about accountability. And it's about who truly stands with working families.   As a military mom, I have deep respect and gratitude for the men and women who protect our country — whether serving overseas, at home, or as first responders like the heroes of 9/11 who ran toward danger when others ran away. They sacrificed for us.   That's why it matters how our elected officials vote.   When Melissa Bean was in Congress, she voted against legislation that would have strengthened protections and benefits for American workers and first responders. She also supported trade policies that allowed jobs to move overseas — decisions that hurt working families here in Illinois. Today, her establishment campaign is being fueled by millions in outside spending from special interests and PACs. Fight Against Dark Money I believe politicians should answer to voters — not wealthy donors or corporate-backed groups.   The good news? This race is competitive. Our internal polling shows we are within striking distance — just three points behind. That means we can win this primary and defeat the Republican in November.   Unlike my opponent, I have not taken a single cent of dark money. As a small business owner, educator, and policy leader, I will put workers, families, and small businesses first.   Here's what I'll bring to Congress:   ✅ Fiscal responsibility that protects working families ✅ Strategic trade policies that create jobs here — not ship them overseas ✅ Real advocacy for IL-08 constituents, not lobbyists   We don't need politics as usual. We need Commonsense, Responsible Change.   If you believe IL-08 deserves independent leadership rooted in integrity, I'm asking you to chip in $20 today to help us reach more voters and finish strong. $20 for Accountable, New Leadership Together, we can restore honesty, strengthen our district, and build what's next.   With gratitude,    Sanjyot   Website: www.SanjyotForCongress.com In the News: In the News | Sanjyot Dunung for Congress Substack: Building What's Next   Join Our Commonsense Movement   My priorities in supporting Our Commonsense Movement include:   ✅ Making life more affordable and expanding the American Dream.   ✅ Making smart investments in people, learning, infrastructure, renewable energy, and innovation.   ✅ Growing our economy without chaotic policies and tariffs.   ✅ Protecting the programs working families rely on.   ✅ Improving Medicare so that everyone can live and age with dignity.   ✅ Passing pro-immigration reform to ensure legal and faster pathways to visas, green cards, and citizenship.   ✅ Focusing on people and communities — not divisive, autocratic politics.   ✅ Passing campaign finance reform and term limits for the House, Senate, and Supreme Court, as well as strengthening voting rights.   ✅ Building a future that's stable and hopeful for all Americans.
