Durbin Endorses Will County Clerk Candidate Michelle Stiff

Spread the love

U.S. Sen. Dick Durbin has endorsed JTHS 204 School Board Member and Will County Director of Workforce Services Michelle Stiff’s candidacy for Will County Clerk.

“The stakes could not be higher for election authorities this election. That’s why I am endorsing Michelle Stiff for Will County Clerk,” said Senate Majority Whip Dick Durbin. “Michelle has made it clear she will stand against voter suppression and work to ensure voter accessibility for all residents of Will County. Your vote is your voice, and you can count on Michelle to protect it.”

With his endorsement, Sen. Durbin joins the ranks of former Sec. of State Jesse White, Lt. Gov. Juliana Stratton, Illinois Treasurer Mike Frerichs, and countless others in supporting Michelle Stiff’s candidacy.

“Sen. Durbin is a champion for voting rights and election security in Washington. In 2024 alone, he introduced the John R. Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act and the Joint Resolution to Enshrine the Right to Vote in the Constitution in order to make our elections more free, fair, and accessible to working families,” said Will County Clerk Democratic nominee Michelle Stiff. “When it comes to upholding our democracy’s most sacred right, Sen. Durbin’s video matches his audio. I’m proud to have his support.”
