Candidate for State Representative in the 52nd District, David McSweeney, is pleased to announce a fundraiser featuring Illinois House Republican Leader Tom Cross.

The event will be held on June 14th from 6- 8PM at Francesca’s Famiglia restaurant in Barrington. The event is hosted by a number of local and statewide business leaders and organizations.

“I am proud to have the full support of Republican Leader Tom Cross and the nearly unanimous support of elected officials and leaders in the 52nd District.

“I am humbled by the response and I look forward to serving the people of the 52nd District and focusing on the issues that are important to them,” said McSweeney.

“I have visited thousands of homes in the 52nd District and it is clear that voters are concerned about

• the fiscal irresponsibility in Springfield,
• rising property taxes, and
• the weak Obama/Quinn economy.

I’m going to continue to focus on my message of

• lower taxes,
• less spending and
• real reform.

Tom Cross knows that my race is critical to achieving a Republican majority in the Illinois House,” said McSweeney.
