“The boundaries of the 26th district may change but my duty and message remain clear,” said Duffy. “I have a vision for Illinois that puts us FIRST – not last. We still have a lot of work to do to get Illinois back on track.”
A small business owner, Senator Duffy originally ran for office in 2008 pledging to do everything he could to Encourage Job Growth, Fight Corruption, and Keep Taxes Low. He has evaluated every piece of legislation based on those three key principles.
Senator Duffy has been extremely active and outspoken in his efforts to promote a more business friendly work environment, shine a light on the inner workings of our state government – and he has fought hard against excessive regulation, litigation and taxation.
“I believe we need more people with real-world experience doing their duty by serving in our state government,” Duffy explained.
The 26th State Senate District runs from Downtown Crystal Lake east and southeast.
As the youngest of 11 children and the father of five kids, Senator Duffy recognizes the impact critical legislation can have on our daily life. As a small business owner for over 15 years, Duffy understands – first hand – how to create jobs, balance a budget and live within our means. “I believe it is imperative to continue promoting these principles in the State Senate, “Duffy stated.
“It has been an honor to represent the people of the 26th district for the past three years. I am very blessed to have the best volunteers, donors and supporters in the state,” said Duffy.
“I strive to be the voice of ALL people and will continue to get others engaged in our political process so we can put our state on a path to success.”
