“Illinois, maybe more than any other state, needs REAL people to represent them in the State House. Machine politics and single-party rule have created a fortress of unaccountability and the "group think" of the political class, means who we have in Springfield, quit listening to us years ago.”
(Campaign website (trussellforillinois.com)) “Will you stand with me in this fight? Together, we can make a difference and your early support will send a message that accountability, balance and common sense can be a part of how Illinois is run.”
