Democrat Cheri Bustos to Challenge Bobby Schilling in Illinois’ 17th District

Friends,
Please consider the following statement from the National Republican Congressional Committee as you cover Cheri Bustos’ announcement that she will run for Congress in Illinois’ 17th District.

“Cheri Bustos has a disturbing record of supporting higher taxes and job-destroying regulations that have hampered job growth in Illinois. Bobby Schilling’s pro-growth record of cutting spending and removing harmful regulations is in stark contrast with out-of-touch Bustos, who will be another vote for reckless spending and soaring taxes in Washington.” – NRCC Spokeswoman Andrea Bozek
