Bears, Bacon & Ballots!
From the Illinois Governor’s race and congressional races to the Chicago mayoral race, Illinois Secretary of State, and even the Chicago Bears — we covered a lot of ground at this week's Fall Legislative Breakfast.

From local to federal politics, we explored the races, the possibilities, the what-ifs and what-if-nots, and what could come next in Illinois politics. It was a morning full of great questions, expert perspectives, and lively discussion!

A huge THANK YOU to our outstanding panelists, moderator, sponsors, and everyone who joined us for an engaging morning filled with thoughtful conversation and great questions!

We appreciate everyone who helped make this program possible and the business and community leaders who showed up ready to listen, learn, and engage.

Staying informed. Asking questions. Building connections. That’s what it’s all about!
