HL559:  Making Regulatory Reform a Reality

For the U.S. House of Representatives, the Tribune Editorial Board endorses: Nikki Budzinski (13th), Lauren Underwood (14th) and Esther Joy King (17th).

Outgoing Rep. Cheri Bustos’ campaign message in 2020 was “Illinois is worth fighting for.” Now, her one-time Republican challenger is running a similar message: “America is worth the fight.”

Though Illinois has a Democratic lean as a whole, the state will be the site of some high-profile races this fall that could determine which party controls Congress in January.
