The Weeks Keep Getting Busier...We're Heading Straight to a Win!


If you receive our e-mail updates, you know that Julie has received a number of endorsements already this month. Not only has she been endorsed by more than 30 elected officials, she also has earned the endorsement of National Organization of Women, Associated Fire Fighters of Illinois, UAW - Region 4, Teamsters Joint Council 25 and the Women's Campaign Forum. 

This week, Glenview Trustee Scott Britton and Northbrook Trustee Todd Heller endorsed Julie for her record of standing up for residents of the 10th District and for Illinois' families. 

Julie started off the week at a candidates forum at Congregation Beth El. She shared her personal history, her legislative track record and her goals for Congress. Julie reiterated her strong pro-Israel, pro-choice, pro-small business and pro-health care reform stances. 

Sunday evening, Julie hosted a meet-and-greet at her campaign office. Northfield Township residents came to meet Julie, ask her questions and share their outlook on the 10th District. Energized by Julie's vision for the 10th District, attendees stuck around after the event and volunteered their time stuffing envelopes and making phone calls on Julie's behalf.

Speaking of volunteers...if you're interested in getting involved, now is a great time to do it! We're less than two months from the primary, so we need you now more than ever. Call 847.550.3777 or e-mail alex@juliehamos.org to volunteer, host an event or get more information about Julie and her Congressional record of standing up for what matters most. 

On Monday, Julie hosted a young professionals fundraiser and served as key note speaker at the Chicago Clean Energy Alliance dinner. Both were huge successes and speak to the diversity of support Julie has garnered. 

The young professionals event was a first for Julie, since she Skyped live from Carnivale in Chicago to an event in D.C. It was a great way to send Julie's message to Washington, and continue garnering support in the Capitol. 

The weeks keep getting busier for Julie! The office always is bustling, as Julie's campaign gets stronger every day. Please keep the support coming, we're getting close to the primary and getting Julie closer to Congress!
