Endoresement: 6th Congressional
District – Roskam
In Illinois’ 6th Congressional District, three-term Republican incumbent Peter Roskam of Wheaton is running against Democratic newcomer Leslie Coolidge of Barrington Hills. After redistricting, the new 6th District includes northeast Kane County through the center of DuPage County, Algonquin Township in McHenry County, and southwest Lake and northwest Cook counties. If elected to another term, Roskam, who serves in a leadership role as chief deputy whip of the U.S. House, wants to simplify the U.S. tax code, ending certain loopholes that favor some businesses and industries over others, and creating incentives for businesses and manufacturers to keep and grow jobs in the U.S. He favors repealing President Barack Obama’s Affordable Care Act
