5 priorities · 6 quoted statements
A Nation that forgets God cannot remain free. Whether it's standing up for free speech, safeguarding the Second Amendment, or fighting federal overreach, Jeff believes our founding values are not negotiable - they are worth defending.
"Our freedom is fragile. I will never compromise on the Constitution."
Families in Illinois' 13th District are being hit hard by rising costs. Jeff will focus on real solutions - like expanding Midwest energy to lower utility bills, strengthening local farms and supply chains to cut food prices, and cracking down on onerous regulation. Together, we will fight for middle-class families, small businesses, and farmers - because working families in Central and Southern Illinois deserve real affordability and a fair shot at the future.
Jeff believes parents - not bureaucrats - should decide what's best for their children. He'll fight against political indoctrination in schools, oppose forced DEI programs, and protect the integrity of girls' and boys' sports. He stands for safe classrooms, strong families, and parental rights. Jeff is committed to protecting children, empowering parents, and ensuring that schools serve families - not the other way around.
Securing our borders and supporting law enforcement in our communities is essential to keeping American families safe. Jeff will fight to keep our border secure and prevent the trafficking of massive amounts of drugs - especially deadly fentanyl from flowing into our country- and stop the spread of violent crime as well as human trafficking into our neighborhoods. He will fight to secure our border, stop the flow of illegal drugs, and stand with law enforcement officers who work every day to protect our communities and uphold the rule of law.
Jeff will stand strong to defend family farms and the agricultural industry. He will focus on expanding nuclear energy, oil, and natural gas to power our towns and lower costs. Jeff will focus on workforce development and promote job growth.

Each loan as the campaign’s report through Oct 14, 2026 lists it, with what is still owed. A loan from an earlier cycle can appear here, and one repaid in full drops off the report, so the list need not add up to the row.

By the state each donor wrote on the filing, across 5 states and territories. Donors who have given $200 or less this cycle are not itemized, so they cannot be placed on a map. The FEC’s grouping also counts joint-fundraising memo lines, so these rows can add up to more than the itemized total.

Itemized gifts over $200, grouped by the words donors filed: not an industry classification, and a gift from an employee is not a gift from the employer. The FEC’s grouping also counts joint-fundraising memo lines, so these rows can add up to more than the itemized total. Gifts of $200 or less ($72,568) are not itemized, so no employer or occupation is filed for them.
Outside spending $84,028 about Wilson
Money groups spent on their own, not through a campaign. Each ad is filed against the candidate it names, so money attacking an opponent shows on the opponent’s row. Open a candidate to see who spent it.
Support and oppose are each group’s own labels, not a judgment made here.
Independent expenditures (Schedule E) only. Electioneering communications and corporate or union member communications file separately; they are counted for Wilsonunder “Other outside spending” in the full finance detail, but not for the rest of the field, so every other row is a floor.
