About the Candidate

Candidate Statement

My name is Marcus Lewis, a former U.S. Postal Worker.

I am also a Democratic Candidate for Congress, 2nd District.

I am ready to represent you as you must know that this is the moment for true change for our blighted area that only a private citizen on the ground level can see the problems that we face on a daily basis.

Have you noticed any changes other than the rich and connected get what should be going to the masses of the residents?  Of course not.

There is plenty of homelessness, the hungry and needs of our residents in a land that only gives crumbs at holidays while hoarding of our resources goes to those by those who claim to represent us but are controlled by outside deep pockets that could less about us...THE REAL CONSTITUENTS OF THE 2ND DISTRICT!!

Time is upon us to seize this moment to change U.S Representatives' from a Micheal Bloomberg handpicked fellow New Yorker to a homegrown Illinois man that will stand with you and by you.  I am a man you can trust and depend on espousing the things this district hasn't seen in a long time...an honest man free of corruption and any scandal.

After all, whoever funds you runs you.

I ask for your enthusiastic vote for me on March 17th, 2020.

I stand for free public college for all. 

Medicare for All. 

AND MOST OF ALL, JUSTICE FOR ALL, ESPECIALLY RACIAL JUSTICE.

The next step now is up to you to "THINK-FOR-YOURSELF."

I hope you are sick and tired of being sick and tired of the same 'ol same 'ol,
machine politician. 

Well so am I.  I will be a citizen legislator.  The Best Choice For US is an honest man.

I conclude with this, "Had enough?"

Candidate Q&A

Why are you running?

The 2nd District cries out for help!!

What is your vision for this office?

To give the voice of a honest citizen who will champion the common man, woman & children’s plea for resources and assistance that’s hoarded by the rich & connected without ever selling out to get it.  Ever!!

What do you think is the most pressing issue facing your constituents and how do you plan on addressing it?

Everything!! 

Have you looked at the District lately?  If ever? 

We face exorbitant property taxes, massive water bills, joblessness, homelessness, hungry people holding signs in the frigid cold, begging!  This is inhuman while the current Bloomberg “installed congresswoman” has “Karaoke with Kelly” parties...totally insulated from true daily struggles of a 2nd Congressional District resident.

Enough is just too much!!

My aim is to get this district off of this laissez-faire style representative path to DECENCY for the human soul.  I ask for three (3) terms to help turn this rutterless, corrupt ship around.  With the help from God Almighty!!
