Junaid for Congress
@junaidforus.bsky.social
Running for Illinois’ 8th Congressional District.
I am honored to be endorsed by both If Not Now Chicago and The Justice Coalition!

Their support and shared belief in a free Palestine gives me hope that we can bring about change in Congress.

This shouldn’t be controversial to say. Medicare is for everyone, created with the idea of helping everyone it can.

The actions that ICE took in Elgin this past Saturday are inexcusable, but don’t let this discourage you. This will only fuel our fight for a better IL-08, so that things like this never happen again in our neighborhoods.

I'm running for Congress to make an American Dream that works for ALL of us.

I’m happy to be able to join the @endcitizensunited.bsky.social Unrig Washington campaign! Congress deserves leaders who refuse to be manipulated by corporate PAC money, and who fights with the people in mind, not their wallets.

I had a wonderful time this morning at the Northern Kane County Good Scout Breakfast! It may have been cold outside, but there was so much warmth and community in the room.

I know what it’s like to reach out to someone who needs help, not out of pity or charity, but because you know it's right.

In this season of giving, we should remember all of the people who need help. Your neighbors are your neighbors, regardless of the support they need.

A very happy Thanksgiving Day to you all! I am grateful for many things; my family, my friends, and most importantly, YOU!

Although we have all been through hardships over this past year, let us be grateful for our strength and how far we’ve come!

I was delighted to meet Mayor Rodney Craig and discuss the priorities and needs of our community, including improving our local infrastructure, strengthening much-needed services for our families, and ensuring the region continues to grow responsibly.

Donald Trump is after public education, and we cannot let him defund anymore of our children’s futures. Public, FREE education is what helped build this country to be a nation of leaders, and restricting that will only bring more conflicts.

Thank you Congressman Ro Khanna for giving me your endorsement! Congressman Khanna is a true progressive champion, and with his endorsement, we are one step closer to bringing our fight to Congress.

I send my gratitude to the Greater Palatine Area Democrats and all the volunteers who helped us collect petitions to secure our place on the ballot!

Being able to meet you all and thank you in person means more to me than you realize. Let’s win this!

Cutting Medicaid should never be an option. Congress does not have the right to play with people’s healthcare, but it does have the obligation to protect it.

Our campaign is proudly endorsed by @trackaipac.com. Our campaign is 100% funded by the people, and we refuse to take money from an institution that heralds a genocide.

We’ve officially made it onto the ballot! I once again extend my thanks to everyone who has got me to this point; the volunteers, the supporters. Our hard work has led us here, and I couldn’t be prouder.

All that’s left to do is to win this race so we can uplift IL-08!

I am happy our hardworking government officials will finally be able to be paid, but as I’ve stated before, this only makes the American people lose confidence and even hope in our democracy.

I had a great time at the Greater Palatine Area Democrats meeting last week! I enjoyed every discussion and conversation about my campaign and our message of bringing progressive change to the 8th District!

My friends, today we honor the brave men and women who have dedicated their lives to fighting for freedom.

To all veterans and their families, from the bottom of my heart, I thank you for your service.

Working Americans need real leadership that won't abandon them when times get tough. What happened on Sunday was unacceptable.

Don’t you want your taxpayer money to go to something productive instead?

SNAP is returning, but with a catch. It won’t be fully-funded, and there is yet to be a concrete date when it will be back 100% again.

My friends, I encourage you to look out for your neighbors. We can only get through this together.

I am ecstatic to announce an endorsement from my dear friend Senator Rachel Ventura! I am honored to know that Ventura believes that we can make a change in IL-08!

We need to expand Medicaid so that our vulnerable communities are protected.

In Congress, I promise to make sure that Medicaid’s coverage becomes more accessible to those in need, and that these important programs stay funded.

Don't worry, I'll definitely fight for human rights as your Congressman!
