What Happened this Week?

The largest transfer of the week was from the McDonough County Republican Central Committee $30,000 to Citizens for Hammond on June 13th . Incumbent Representative Norine Hammond (R) currently has $236,782 in committee funds available, while her opponent John Curtis (D), has $52,449. Curtis is the first Democrat to challenge Rep. Hammond since her appointment in 2010.

Midwest Operating Engineers Construction Industry Research and Service donated $387,900 to the Chicagoland Operators Joint Labor- Management PAC on June 15. The PAC has indicated that these funds are sourced from member union dues, and currently has over $2 million in funds available.
 
The Chicago Regional Council of Carpenters PAC continued its support of Democratic legislators and committees this week. After supporting Representative Mussman last week, the PAC transferred $25,000 each to Representative Kate Cloonen, Representative Kathleen Willis, Speaker Madigan, the Democratic Majority, and the Democratic Party of Illinois this week. Those represented five of the six largest transfers of the week. Rep. Cloonen, like Rep. Mussman, narrowly won re-election in 2014 and has a Republican challenger for the November General Election.
