We could use a break from just about everything this weekend. Enjoy the parades and the true feeling of Independence - at least for a moment!

A car kill switch is not a safety feature. It is a master key for government and corporate overreach. Your fundamental right to travel should never have an "off" button controlled by a bureaucrat.

We believe in inherent rights, true privacy, and the freedom to move without a state mandated permission slip.

And, as expected...we welcome to the race. We know three things:
1. It's hard, but meaningful, to run as an Independent.
2. Both Darren Bailey and JB Pritzker had the chance to change the Election Code to open it up and they chose the closed approach instead.
3. Major Political parties actively work to disadvantage voters by removing choice and preventing candidates from accessing the ballot.

Don't believe it when they say "we care about the public". What they mean is "we only care about OUR PARTY's desires for the public." Or sometimes, "we're really just one party anyway, so choose between the two of us."

We're reminded today: "A scarcity mindset is a fear-based belief system focusing on a lack of resources, such as time, money, or opportunities, leading to anxiety, short-term decision-making, and constant feelings of insufficiency." - Dr. Jenna Glover, Headspace

Does that about sum it up, DuPage County Republicans?
