  • Nrcc Illinois Primary Memo To
    NRCC ILLINOIS PRIMARY MEMO TO: INTERESTED PARTIES FROM: NRCC POLITICAL AND NRCC COMMUNICATIONS DATE: FEBRUARY 3, 2010 SUBJECT: ILLINOIS PRIMARY RESULTS The road to putting an end to the Democrats’ reckless agenda began tonight in President Obama’s own backyard. The results of the Congressional primaries in Illinois prove that Republicans are not only poised to successfully defend all of the GOP-held districts in the Land of Lincoln, but we are prepared to run highly aggressive campaigns in several suburban Chicago districts currently held by vulnerable Democrats. With an unacceptably high unemployment rate, a skyrocketing deficit and an out-of-touch agenda, Democrats are on the defensive, and Republicans are well positioned to pick up seats in November. Open Seats: IL-10 (Rep. Mark Kirk, R) Outgoing Rep. Mark Kirk has consistently beaten back Democratic challengers despite this district’s overall Democratic bent, and Robert Dold is in a strong position to repeat Kirk’s success on Election Day. A small business owner, Robert Dold started this race as an outsider, and quickly proved himself as a political force to be reckoned with. As a third-generation native of the Chicago suburbs, Dold brings with him a background in both business and public policy, having served as the investigative counsel for the House Government Reform and Oversight Committee. As the Republican nominee for the suburban Chicago district, Dold is well positioned to carry on the Kirk tradition of being an independent voice for the hardworking families of suburban Chicago. Dold defeated state Rep. Beth Coulson, entrepreneur Dick Green, Arie Friedman and Paul Hamann for the Republican nomination.

  • H.R. 44, the STABILIZING AFFORDABLE HOUSING for the FUTURE ACT Model Letter to Your Illinois Representative
    H.R. 44, THE STABILIZING AFFORDABLE HOUSING FOR THE FUTURE ACT Model Letter to your Illinois Representative Summary: H.R. 44 represents the most important preservation bill to be proposed in Congress in years. Proposed by Representative Nydia Velasquez of New York, the bill calls for a change of priorities at HUD, including repealing its authority to rescind Section 8 contracts at will during property disposition, as well as unfairly raise prices of foreclosed properties when selling to local governments. It also calls upon HUD to publish and update information about multifamily buildings online, including REAC scores and any issued notices to prepay or terminate mortgages and contracts. Finally, it reinstates the Up Front Grant program, making it a permanent program to fund preservation transactions. These are some of the key changes that advocates and practitioners have been waiting to push through for years. Show your support for H.R. 44 by sending a letter to your delegate in the House of Representatives, as well as to the key members on the House Financial Services Committee. Currently, only one Illinois Representative—Jan Schakowsky—has signed onto the bill as a co- sponsor. Our delegation needs to hear your voice! See following page for a list of Representatives and their addresses. To find out which district you reside in, go to www.vote-smart.org and enter your 9-digit zip code.
