Bill Reedy for the 13th CD

Bill Reedy (D-Downer's Grove) formally announced his candidacy to represent IL-13. Judy Biggert (R-Hinsdale) currently holds the seat. He has posted a diary to Daily Kos.

IL residents have been complaining about Rep. Biggert's ethics for some time. Her insurance industry constituents are happy with her. For $83,623, they have paid well for her services.

She has been on The Hill since the infamous year of 1994. The voters can limit her to 12 years. It is time. She has done enough damage to the quality of life for regular working people. Beyond gerrymandering, there is no way she can succeed in maintaining her seat.

CORRECTION: The voters elected Rep. Biggert to Congress in 1998. It is still long enough. Time to leave.
