While we have all been focused on dealing with everything that COVID has thrown at us, we have been fortunate to have Sean Casten in Congress to spearhead the fight on climate change. As a former clean energy business owner, Sean has introduced four bills in Congress and secured $1 billion in funding while showing how we can combat the damage to our warming planet at the same time as creating good-paying jobs.
Closer to home, Sean has been the most accessible politician I have ever met through his more than 50 town halls, countless school and business visits, Meet and Greets and phone calls to constituents to find out how he can help. Personally, I am forever grateful to have received a Paycheck Protection Program loan to keep my small business afloat. Looking forward, it is critical that we have an ethical tireless representative like Sean Casten to continue working for the 6th District. — Ellen Vestergaard, Hinsdale
