We worked hard, organized, and built a big coalition, but we couldn’t compete with the millions of dollars from Trump-aligned super PACs in this race. We may have lost this battle, but we're going to keep fighting until we beat Trump and build a better world that we know is possible.

Which brings us to my guy in this race, inaugural Golden Shrugee and Friend of the Guide, State Senator Robert Peters. Longtime readers will know that in this house, we stan Robert. He’s been a progressive warrior in the State Senate since being appointed in 2019 to succeed Kwame Raoul, who was elected Attorney General. Since then, Robert has been front and center in some of the most impactful legislation coming out of Springfield. Robert led the passage of the Pretrial Fairness Act/SAFE-T Act, which ended cash bail in Illinois. He’s passed laws ending the criminalization of HIV+ status, curtailing abuses in private prisons, expanding resources available to families post-adoption, establishing a statewide public defender’s office, and so, so, so much more.

AIPAC cash has popped up in the race to replace Robin Kelly in IL-02. "Affordable Chicago Now" is a SuperPAC that just organized a week ago and hasn't identified any of its donors. The PAC is supporting Donna Miller, whose donors are primarily AIPAC donors. Robert Peters' campaign emails:

AIPAC donors also funded nearly 85% of Miller’s campaign fundraising haul in the fourth quarter of 2025.

“Between MAGA money, AIPAC donors and shady dark money super PACs, it’s clear that right wing forces are playing games with the Democratic primary election,” said Matthew Fisch, campaign manager for Robert Peters for Congress. “Every time you see an ad for Donna Miller on TV, you should know that pro-Trump, right wing forces paid for it. Why? Because they believe Miller is their best investment to advance their agenda to wreak havoc on our communities.”

Miller’s fourth quarter Federal Election Commission report, filed Saturday night, revealed that a shocking percentage came from donors who have a history of giving to Donald Trump or AIPAC. Miller, a Cook County Commissioner, reported raising nearly $39,000.00 from Trump donors in the fourth quarter. A full listing of those donors is available here.

She also reported raising at least $875,350.92 in the fourth quarter (83% of her total) from donors who have given to AIPAC or its affiliated super PAC, the United Democracy Project, since 2023. A full listing of those donors is available here.

This represents a massive spike in fundraising for Miller, who prior to this quarter, had reported raising only $242.494.02. During the previous quarter, Miller reported only $250 from a single Trump donor, and $750 from a single AIPAC donor.
