A Coalition That Reflects Cook County

Endorsements aren’t just names on a list – they are a reflection of values, trust and results. 

This campaign is powered by a broad, diverse coalition that reflects the people, services, and communities that make Cook County work. 

Governor JB Pritzker

“Toni Preckwinkle is a fierce champion for Cook County, a true partner in governance, and a good friend. I’m proud to endorse her re-election. With Donald Trump dismantling constitutional rights, defunding public safety, and slashing healthcare, Toni is a tested, successful leader we need standing up for working families. Cook County is stronger because Toni Preckwinkle has fought to make it so, and our state would be fortunate if its residents continue to benefit from her leadership for another four years.” – Governor JB Pritzker

Sen. Dick Durbin

“Toni Preckwinkle is not just leading Cook County, she’s setting a national example. From eliminating medical debt to launching the largest guaranteed income pilot in the country, she’s proving that government can deliver real relief for working families. I’m proud to support her re-election.” – Senator Durbin

Rep. Jan Schakowsky

 “Toni Preckwinkle is the progressive, bold, and experienced leader we need right now. She has never wavered in standing up to Donald Trump’s attacks on healthcare, working families, and the essential services our communities rely on. Cook County cannot afford to lose a leader who understands both the urgency of this moment and how to govern effectively. Toni protects our values while delivering real results. I’m proud to stand with her.”

Rep. Jesus “Chuy” García

“Since 2010, Toni has transformed Cook County into a national model for responsible, ethical, people-centered government. Under Toni’s leadership, Cook County has stood firm in defense of our values, protecting healthcare, advancing justice reform, and holding the line against attacks on our Constitution and our communities. We’re proud of what we’ve built and we must protect it.”

Rep. Delia Ramirez

“Toni has been a strong partner in defending immigrant communities, especially as the Trump Administration escalated its attacks. She has stood up, spoken out, and used the power of her office to defend immigrant families and protect Cook County residents. At a time when our communities are under threat, we need leaders who will not back down. Toni Preckwinkle is that leader.”

Rep. Danny Davis

“I’ve seen Toni Preckwinkle’s leadership up close, from her years strengthening South Side neighborhoods as 4th Ward Alderman to her transformative leadership as Cook County Board President. Through economic downturns, public health crises, and political pressure, she has remained focused on delivering for the people she serves. That kind of consistency matters, and it will continue to serve Cook County well in the years ahead.”

Rep. Jonathan Jackson

“Toni Preckwinkle governs with a clear commitment to justice. Under her leadership, Cook County has modernized its justice system, strengthened oversight, and ensured taxpayer dollars are managed responsibly. She has proven that reform and effective governance go hand in hand, exactly the kind of leadership this moment demands.”
