CANDIDATE FORUM TONIGHT @8PM! Ready to see me take on Darin LaHood head-on and hold him accountable for 10+ years of failed policies, unwavering loyalty to the president, and refusal to hold in-person town halls? Visit our website to stream or join supporters at a local watch party near you.

Glad to join the candidate forum hosted by Discover Dixon. Darin LaHood didn’t show up to answer questions from Lee County voters. I, however, appreciated the chance to discuss expanding childcare, strengthening regional manufacturing and more. Thanks to everyone who made it happen!

I’m running for Congress to take our power back, root out corruption, and stand up for towns like ours. Check out our new TV ad, “Towns Like Ours.”

Proud to earn the Alliance for Retired Americans’ endorsement! Their 4.4 million members—including 243,834 in Illinois—share my commitment to protecting and strengthening Medicare and Social Security. I’ll always fight to expand these programs, not put them on the chopping block like my opponent.

Earlier today, Darin LaHood and I filmed our candidate forum. Tune in Thursday at 8 PM to see two very different visions for leadership and our country’s future. You can watch from anywhere or join a local watch party! Streaming and event links at nolleyforcongress.com/events

25 years ago, 2,977 people were killed on 9/11. I was 12, watching those images at school, not yet understanding how much our country had changed. Today we remember the victims, honor the heroes, and stand together without surrendering the liberties and values that define us.

Paul Nolley for Congress @nolleyforcongress.bsky.social · 08/09/2026

I hope everyone had a great Labor Day. Our leaders should prioritize the needs of the workers who make our district & nation run. I’m proud to be the candidate in #IL16 that actually fights for working people, is from the working class, and is supported by organized labor.

Paul Nolley for Congress @nolleyforcongress.bsky.social · 27/08/2026

Thank you to the fired-up folks of Normal Women Rising for having me at their monthly meeting! I enjoyed talking about why I stepped up to fight for a new direction for our country, the values driving our campaign, and how we can build a better future for our kids and grandkids.

Paul Nolley for Congress @nolleyforcongress.bsky.social · 26/08/2026

Great meeting with the Jo Daviess County Farm Bureau. We need to take on consolidation, lower input costs, secure Right to Repair, and ensure farmers get a fair price. Rural communities shouldn’t pay the price for reckless trade and foreign policy made by people disconnected from the consequences.

Paul Nolley for Congress @nolleyforcongress.bsky.social · 07/08/2026

More workers across our district and region are joining our campaign! I’m grateful to CWA District 4 for their endorsement and proud to stand with thousands of working people across the Midwest in the fight to make our government work for ordinary people again.

Paul Nolley for Congress @nolleyforcongress.bsky.social · 05/08/2026

Darin LaHood serves the powerful few. As your representative, I’ll work for you. We don’t take money from corporate PACs, AIPAC, or groups defending our broken & corrupt campaign finance system. We’re building a movement powered by ordinary people, and together we’ll flip this district.

11611

Paul Nolley for Congress @nolleyforcongress.bsky.social · 02/08/2026

Another great journey across #IL16! Thank you to the good folks in Peoria, Oregon, and Pecatonica for building this movement with us. We may not have our opponent’s millions in corporate campaign cash, but we have hundreds of fired-up people ready to build a better future for the next generation.

Paul Nolley for Congress @nolleyforcongress.bsky.social · 30/07/2026

Today marks 61 years since Medicare and Medicaid became law. For six decades, they’ve provided essential care to seniors, children, people with disabilities, and millions more. Darin LaHood voted for largest Medicaid cuts ever. I’ll fight to reverse the LaHood cuts and expand Medicare access.

0136

Paul Nolley for Congress @nolleyforcongress.bsky.social · 29/07/2026

We’re building a coalition of Democrats, Republicans, Independents, and everyone in between who want new leadership and an independent voice in Washington. Together, we’ll protect Social Security, expand Medicare, and create more blue-collar careers and apprenticeships.

1115

Paul Nolley for Congress @nolleyforcongress.bsky.social · 27/07/2026

Today marks 500 days since this campaign began & 100 days until the election. Thank you to everyone building this movement across #IL16. No corporate PAC money. No lobbyist influence. Just everyday people taking on an out-of-touch incumbent and fighting for what matters. Let’s go!

Paul Nolley for Congress @nolleyforcongress.bsky.social · 22/07/2026

Proud to have earned the support of @ilaflcio.bsky.social in the general election. Organized labor is one of the few ways working people can gain power. When we flip #IL16, working families will finally have a representative who stands with them, not those consolidating wealth and power at the top.

085

Paul Nolley for Congress @nolleyforcongress.bsky.social · 16/07/2026

Our country should belong to the people who make it run. For too long, our leaders have answered to the powerful instead of regular people. We’re building a coalition that can win, deliver real change, make life easier for working families, and expand opportunity for generations to come.

Paul Nolley for Congress @nolleyforcongress.bsky.social · 04/07/2026

Happy Independence Day! On our 250th anniversary and such a critical point in our nation’s history, we must defend our rights, protect self-government, and ensure the American Dream belongs to every working person and family, not just the wealthy and powerful. I’m ready to do my part.

095

Paul Nolley for Congress @nolleyforcongress.bsky.social · 30/06/2026

The House Majority is at stake this year & we can flip a district right here in IL. But we need your help. Our fundraising period ends midnight today! Please pitch in any amount and help flip the 16th District from Red to Blue! Go to NolleyforCongress.com to contribute before midnight tonight!

Paul Nolley for Congress @nolleyforcongress.bsky.social · 24/06/2026

Great evening in Grundy County yesterday, meeting residents at Heritage Woods of Minooka and holding a town hall in Morris. We discussed AI, data centers, rural healthcare, utility costs, international conflicts, and more. We stayed until every question was answered!

Paul Nolley for Congress @nolleyforcongress.bsky.social · 22/06/2026

Happy Father’s Day to all the dads across our district. I’m grateful to spend some extra time with my kids and my dad today. Growing up as the son of a mechanic, I learned the value of hard work early and picked up some automotive skills I hope to pass down. Hope you all enjoyed a relaxing day!

094

Paul Nolley for Congress @nolleyforcongress.bsky.social · 20/06/2026

Great to sit down with @rokhanna.bsky.social this week. We share a belief in a new economic direction that puts working people and communities hit hard by deindustrialization and bad trade deals first. I’m grateful for his support and proud to have him standing with our campaign to flip #IL16!

1106

Paul Nolley for Congress @nolleyforcongress.bsky.social · 18/06/2026

We should all be glad the war is over but be upset that it ever started. It’s been a disaster for our country and for the world. I opposed it from day 1. Darin LaHood supported it every step of the way. He needs to be held responsible his support of this war and in November, you can do just that.

096

Paul Nolley for Congress @nolleyforcongress.bsky.social · 04/06/2026

The people of #IL16 were already struggling before this war started and are even more so because of it. I thank all who voted to pass the War Powers Resolution. LaHood once again shows he doesn't care about you. He cares about the political + corporate class that's kept him in power for a decade

0128

Paul Nolley for Congress @nolleyforcongress.bsky.social · 25/05/2026

The story of how my grandfather and his fellow vets brought the LZ Peace Memorial in Rockford to life is truly inspirational. It's a vital place where one can reflect on the sacrifices and service of our countrymen. “All gave some, some gave all.” Wishing everyone a peaceful Memorial Day!

0105

Paul Nolley for Congress @nolleyforcongress.bsky.social · 22/05/2026

I stand with the working people of #IL16 & our growing list of endorsements from labor reflects this. We fight for the people who build this country, not the ones who are actively working to tear it down, divide us & force us to fight for the scraps. Thank you to IW Local 444 for your support!

Paul Nolley for Congress @nolleyforcongress.bsky.social · 19/05/2026

We had a great morning in Stockton a few days ago. Our public event once again drew a packed crowd We then had the opportunity to meet with local farmers and reps of the Jo Daviess County Farm Bureau to discuss their priorities and concerns regarding proposed legislation and federal ag policies

2117

Paul Nolley for Congress @nolleyforcongress.bsky.social · 08/05/2026

Farmers has faced years of industry consolidation that kills competition and drives up input prices. LaHood’s failed policies are driving them off a financial cliff The govt must prioritize the needs of family farms, which means steering policy toward those without lobbyists and big corporate PAC $

0127

Paul Nolley for Congress @nolleyforcongress.bsky.social · 06/05/2026

Over 8 in 10 young people say the economy is bad. Consumer sentiment hit a 50-year low. Healthcare costs are skyrocketing & this war of choice is hurting regular people. Darin LaHood told you this agenda would bring prosperity. It brought chaos & economic pain. I won’t BS you to stay in power.

01310

Paul Nolley for Congress @nolleyforcongress.bsky.social · 01/05/2026

This morning, I joined my friends from SEIU Healthcare IL & IN and other workers to speak out against the devastating cuts this administration and Congress have made to essential programs like Medicaid and SNAP The everyday people of our country deserve so much better. We must fight to deliver it

0118

Paul Nolley for Congress @nolleyforcongress.bsky.social · 29/04/2026

Workers’ Memorial Day reminds us of those who never came home from work. Every worker deserves to return to their loved ones safely. We must strengthen workplace protections, not cut OSHA and other agencies that keep people safe. Thank you, Rockford United Labor, for hosting tonight.

Paul Nolley for Congress @nolleyforcongress.bsky.social · 26/04/2026

Another day on the road! I about our campaign in Princeton before heading north to Rockford to welcome everyone to a volunteer training The field work begins soon and we are bringing in hundreds of people from across the district to meet voters where they are and energize folks across the district!

1129

Paul Nolley for Congress @nolleyforcongress.bsky.social · 25/04/2026

Thank you to our friends at Lee County Democrats for the candidate social in Dixon! I met a ton of new supporters and fired up people from the area who are looking to move our nation in a better direction. I will see you all again soon!

Paul Nolley for Congress @nolleyforcongress.bsky.social · 24/04/2026

Darin LaHood hasn't held an in-person town hall in 9 years. Screening phone call questions is just cowardice. This campaign schedules and advertises town halls weeks in advance. I will go anywhere and talk to anyone. We will continue to fight for real representation while Darin works on photo ops.

1158

Paul Nolley for Congress @nolleyforcongress.bsky.social · 23/04/2026

Honored to be supported by Democrats Abroad Veterans and Military Families Caucus My grandfather has spent his entire life supporting his fellow veterans after returning from Vietnam. His service and passion for helping others inspired me to build a career serving others.

097

Paul Nolley for Congress @nolleyforcongress.bsky.social · 20/04/2026

Today marks NINE YEARS since my opponent last held a Town Hall in our district. In just the past few months, we’ve held a dozen Town Halls and similar events—open to anyone, no screened questions, no gatekeepers. 9 years of not showing up is enough. This November, you can choose someone who will.

Paul Nolley for Congress @nolleyforcongress.bsky.social · 19/04/2026

Recent tornadoes and extreme weather hit communities across #IL16 hard, with Lena among the worst affected. Families are dealing with major damage and disruption. Relief efforts are underway—please consider donating to help this work on the ground: tinyurl.com/mpkjes4n

Paul Nolley for Congress @nolleyforcongress.bsky.social · 16/04/2026

In Q1 '26 we raised over 400% more than our last quarter, but also 40% more than what LaHood's last two challengers raised in their entire campaigns COMBINED! We outraised him by nearly 30% in total donations from individuals. Over 75% of LaHood's funding came from corporate PACs

066

Paul Nolley for Congress @nolleyforcongress.bsky.social · 12/04/2026

We had a great morning yesterday in Mackinaw! This is the moment where regular people like us need to get involved, stand up, and fight back against the chaos and division being pushed by the powerful forces in Washington, D.C.

084

Paul Nolley for Congress @nolleyforcongress.bsky.social · 11/04/2026

Thank you to the people of Morton! We had another packed and energetic town hall last night with a room full of people of all backgrounds asking important questions about the future of our country Big thanks to the Illinois Wesleyan College Democrats for having us out to talk about our campaign

0116

Paul Nolley for Congress @nolleyforcongress.bsky.social · 09/04/2026

Last night, folks from Geneseo packed our town hall! We welcomed Democrats, Republicans, and Independents to participate We are meeting people where they are, to talk about our campaign, our values, and our ideas. The energy this campaign is building is ramping up across the district!

0106

Paul Nolley for Congress @nolleyforcongress.bsky.social · 07/04/2026

Will LaHood continue to stand by this as the president threatens to destroy an entire civilization? Is this how he wants to be remembered? People from across the political spectrum have spoken out about the insanity of this statement. It's disturbing that my opponent seems unwilling to do the same

297

Paul Nolley for Congress @nolleyforcongress.bsky.social · 06/04/2026

Unlike my opponent, I’m not afraid of the people of this district. I want to hear from you directly These are open events where people from across the ideological spectrum can be heard Please let us know you can attend over at nolleyforcongress.com/events

Paul Nolley for Congress @nolleyforcongress.bsky.social · 03/04/2026

Proud to announce our latest endorsement from @SierraClub.org I’m deeply concerned about the direction we’re headed and the next generation If we're serious about giving them a decent future, we have to protect our air, water, and land, create good-paying union jobs, and hold polluters accountable

077

Paul Nolley for Congress @nolleyforcongress.bsky.social · 03/04/2026

Last night, Trump addressed a war driving up oil prices and rattling markets, with no clear strategy despite billions spent and lives at risk. Today, my opponent said he “had the right message.” That kind of blind obedience isn’t just embarrassing—it’s a disservice. I won’t lie to you. He will.

085

Paul Nolley for Congress @nolleyforcongress.bsky.social · 02/04/2026

Pam Bondi is gone, but the corruption, coverups, and chaos continue. We must fight on.

0139

Paul Nolley for Congress @nolleyforcongress.bsky.social · 01/04/2026

I took this picture filling up my work truck this morning $100 to fill a tank because Trump decided to start a war with no clear goals, no strategy, and no regard for the consequences It has cost lives and driven up the price of fuel, fertilizer, home mortgages, and more. This war must end

Paul Nolley for Congress @nolleyforcongress.bsky.social · 27/03/2026

My opponent spent a decade in Congress serving Trump to protect his own power, not #IL16. He voted to cut healthcare, raise premiums, slash food aid, help billionaires, hurt farmers, and block infrastructure. I’m running to fight for working people, not the powerful.
