Working for Illinois Caucus

December 25, 2025
Dear editor;

I hope that you are all relaxing and enjoying the holidays.

As the year comes to an end, Team Kifowit and I are taking the time to reflect on all the places we have visited. I have gone across Illinois and met wonderful people along the way. From Rockford to Granite City, Team Kifowit has found a way to be there. That means a lot of driving, some long train rides, and even hopping on the smallest of planes. Thank you for everyone who has helped our campaign this year, whether it is chipping in a few dollars, volunteering at events, or simply sharing our posts on social media – it all adds up to a successful campaign that focuses on the people of Illinois and not special interests or millionaires.

I enjoyed gathering petition signatures, and personally met more than 4,000 people, shook their hands, learned their names and I remember their faces and stories. Thank you to everyone who has helped along this journey, and I look forward to meeting so many more individuals in 2026.

For today, I’m going to join my dog Smoke, relax by the fire and enjoy time with my family as I hope you are enjoying with yours.

All my best,

Stephanie Kifowit, State representative, and candidate for comptroller
