Why Julie Is Running
Fighting for Illinois Families
As an Air Force Veteran, community volunteer, mother, and cancer research scientist, Julie has dedicated her life to serving others. She's been in Southern Illinois for 25+ years and has seen firsthand how corruption in Washington impacts our communities.
From expanding healthcare access to revitalizing aging infrastructure, Julie understands the challenges facing our district. She's running for Congress to bring the same analytical problem solving skills she uses in her scientific research to tackle the issues that matter most to Southern Illinoisans.
What Julie Will Fight For
Julie's agenda is built around the real needs of Southern Illinois. Not party politics. Not corporate class greed.
Affordable Healthcare
Every IL-12 family deserves access to quality, affordable healthcare, including protecting and expanding coverage for pre-existing conditions.
Economic Opportunity
Julie supports good union jobs, workforce training, and investing in Southern IL industries & infrastructure that create real opportunity for working families.
Reproductive Freedom
Julie will stand with women in Illinois to defend reproductive rights and oppose any federal attempts to restrict personal healthcare decisions.
Supporting Our Veterans
IL-12 is home to thousands of veterans who deserve timely VA care, housing support, and the respect they've earned.
