2026 ENDORSEMENTS

The SEIU IL State Council is proud to endorse candidates on the local, state, and federal levels who stand with working families by protecting the right to organize and fight for economic, racial, and social justice.

From Springfield to Washington, we are backing candidates who are committed to fighting for workers’ rights alongside our members.

Together, these leaders represent a new generation of public servants who believe that when working people thrive, our entire state moves forward.
