With the swift passing of the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act by President Obama’s Administration in January, I am confident that Mike Quigley will be a great addition to Congress in fighting for civil rights and gender equality. As an aspiring civil rights attorney with undergraduate coursework experience in women’s and gender studies, Mike Quigley’s proposed Equality Agenda for Congress are dear to me and he is the kind of support that President Obama needs to ensure equal opportunity for all.
Mike Quigley’s record on fighting for equality includes advocating for women’s reproductive rights, ensuring funding for anti-domestic violence initiatives, and fighting to end discrimination based on sexual orientation, sex, income, or race.
March 3rd is a pivotal day for the Illinois 5th District and I look forward to continuing my support in ensuring that the right advocate for the people, Mike Quigley, gets elected.

Mike,
Someday we will come before God…and the children who have been killed in their mother’s wombs will be there as well. Please change your heart…before it is too late.

Mike Quigley’s record of supporting women’s rights as well sexual and racial discrimination leaves a lot to be desired. He has made a campaign issue of neither. My vote will be going for the true progressive in the race–Matt Reichel, the Green party candidate.
