“We can actually breathe again… and sleep at night.” -Joy Reid

We have defeated Donald Trump. Be proud. “We the People” have defeated backwardness as well as incompetent and corrupt government. We may have lost our battle with Mike Bost but we won the war for the White House - always our #1 objective. This is a day to celebrate - I call it BBD Day (Bye, Bye Donald Day).

Now we must address the Pandemic & the ensuing Economic Depression, the Climate Crisis, Healthcare, and Socio-Economic Injustices like the Racial Injustice Crisis.

Thank you all – the supporters, donors, volunteers, and voters.
It’s been quite the historic year – 2020; 100 years since women won the right to vote. 2020- the year of the Pandemic, the Referendum on Trump & the election of Joe Biden!

A heartfelt THANK YOU to the United States of America!

Here we are in the beautiful city of Marion, Illinois speaking off of the back of a pickup truck in Town Square! Marion is an incredibly important city for the region of southern Illinois and they are doing so many great things and have made remarkable gains in infrastructure, art, and recreation! Thank you, Marion!

We are here at the Miners Memorial in Herrin, IL to talk about our plan to save coal miners! It’s not about saving coal; our economy has already demonstrated where we are headed. Even Donald Trump and Mike Bost couldn’t “bring back coal jobs”! But what we can all do is prioritize saving people still in or affected by the fossil fuel industry through tax credits that provide them with a wage guarantee as we move toward renewable energy! When we talk about a robust plan to tackle the climate crisis, we are talking about a “Just Transition”!

We've Been Everywhere, Man!

With more than 100 public appearances in more than 60 different communities around the Illinois 12th District, we know we are already doing the job of a US Congressperson.

We wish Mike Bost could say the same, but if he could we wouldn't be running. Mike Bost has checked out and sold out. And so it stands to reason that we would vote him out!

He seems to like being seen in Washington D.C. more than he likes being seen in Columbia, Tamaroa, Washington Park, Cairo, East St. Louis, Mt. Vernon, Wood River, Perryville, Sesser, Marion, or Herrin. How can Mike Bost represent your interests in Washington when he doesn't know or care about you?

The answer: He can't. Mike Bost *doesn't* represent you. He represents Mike Bost. He's an irresponsible legislator who's in dereliction of his duties as our congressman.

Vote Ray Lenzi for responsible government for the 12th District!

Today we went to Mike Bost’s office to ask him fair questions. We were asked to leave, like so many other constituents of Mike Bost’s, and we did. While we were there traffic was never blocked.

His Facebook Post is another example of his campaign’s insecurity. This tactic of smearing our campaign, calling it a gimmick to meet our people and challenge poor leadership, is a Bost standard. Mike Bost is uncomfortable with being challenged.

Our campaign is strong in people power. Mike Bost is spending hundreds of thousands of dollars on television advertising because he’s concerned what “We the People” can do to install responsible leadership for the Illinois 12th District.

Our opponent's failed campaign is sinking in the polls because voters are rejecting his extreme liberal agenda. Today he launched a districtwide tour to try and turn things around. They didn't even make it through the first stop before the Carbondale police arrived to remove them from private property and ask them to stop blocking traffic.

It is beyond the pale that 12th District Republicans find it necessary to engage in such untruthful smear tactics. One c...

It is beyond the pale that 12th District Republicans find it necessary to engage in such untruthful smear tactics. One can only suppose that attempting to defend Mr. Bost’s record is so difficult that his supporters are forced to stoop to ridiculous suppositions and lame assertions that have no basis in fact.

If Mr. Bost is re-elected, we can probably expect more of the same. Vote Ray Lenzi for Congress.

We are 8 days away from closing out the most historic election in modern US History.

A surge of younger voters, democrats, and seniors have chosen Biden as the clear choice for responsible, sane leadership in our country.

Help us catch Joe’s coattails.

We intend to ride the Biden wave all the way to the finish line for the good of the 12th District and the good of the United States of America.
