Megan Novak, senior advisor to Americans for Prosperity Action, issued the following statement: 

“AFP Action is proud to support Congressman Bryan Steil in his reelection bid to represent Southeast Wisconsinites in our nation’s capital. Washington needs principled leaders like Rep.

Steil is successful come November 5th.” 

Sandra Benitez, senior advisor to The LIBRE Initiative Action, issued the following statement when announcing the endorsements: 

“The Latino vote is set to be a crucial factor in shaping the outcomes of significant races nationwide. Latinos are eager for principled leaders who prioritize solutions that empower our community and all Americans. We need candidates who champion policies for economic growth and opportunity while advocating against the expansion of big government policies that only benefit Washington. LIBRE Action is prepared to harness the full power of our grassroots efforts to support Bryan Steil who beyond believing in good policy, shows up for his constituents.” 

Background on AFP Action: 

To date this cycle, AFP and AFP Action have reached out to more than 9 million voters — in nearly 650 federal and state races across the country. In close races, one-on-one outreach can be the critical difference. AFP Action’s highly targeted layered approach of doors, phones, mail, and ads is proven to be the most effective way to engage and persuade key voters. Our grassroots teams are out in full force as we head into the final stretch of the campaign this Fall.

Background on The LIBRE Initiative Action  

The LIBRE Initiative Action® is committed to supporting candidates who want to advance freedom-minded policies that promote the wellbeing and self-sufficiency of the Hispanic community and the nation. We believe candidates should stand for eliminating barriers to growth and innovation, trumpet educational achievement, protect the vulnerable, and encourage more participation of Latinos in our economy and communities. We believe that is the way to achieve the American Dream.  

LIBRE Action was created to support those who champion these policies and to build the broad coalitions in Washington D.C. necessary to get them passed. Our vision is to build a movement of millions around policies that lead to a society of mutual benefit-where people succeed by helping others improve their lives and to break the internal and external barriers that prevent people from realizing their potential.

AFP Action Endorses Joe McGraw in IL-17

abarrett on June 6, 2024

PEORIA, IL —Americans for Prosperity Action (AFP Action) today endorsed Joe McGraw in his bid to challenge incumbent Democrat Eric Sorensen in Illinois’ 17th Congressional District in the U.S. House of Representatives.

AFP Action announced last year the organization would be engaging earlier and in more elections than ever before. Today’s endorsements put that promise into action. 

AFP Action Senior Advisor Jason Heffley released the following statement:

“Rep. Eric Sorensen has failed to deliver for Illinois – it’s time to turn the page and usher in new leaders like Joe McGraw in Congress. Today, AFP Action is proud to endorse McGraw in his bid to represent Illinois’ 17th Congressional District.

“Illinois is facing some of the nation’s highest inflation and gas prices, and Eric Sorensen has failed to bring down the cost of living for his district. Sorensen has been a rubber stamp for the failed ‘Bidenomics’ policies of Joe Biden that are causing the soaring inflation facing Illinoisians. It’s time for new leadership in Washington that will deliver real results to hardworking Illinoisans.  

“Throughout his twenty-year career as a judge, Joe McGraw has been a public servant of the people of Illinois. When elected, McGraw has vowed to be a strong voice against ‘Bidenomics’ and fight for economic prosperity and energy independence in Congress. Now more than ever, Illinois needs leaders who will fight back against the progressive agenda of Washington and drive down costs to make the American Dream more achievable.

“AFP Action intends to put the full weight of our grassroots capabilities behind McGraw’s candidacy to ensure he’s elected to the House of Representatives come November.”
