[WASHINGTON, D.C.] – U.S. Senator Tammy Duckworth (D-IL) hosted U.S. Representative-elect Nikki Budzinski (D-IL-13) in her Senate office this week, where the two discussed how they can work together to support Illinoisans in the next Congress.

“I’m excited to have Congresswoman-elect Budzinski as a colleague in Congress and look forward to teaming up with her to help make life easier, safer and more affordable for Illinoisans,” said Senator Duckworth. “With Budzinski’s experience as a public servant, I think our great state and nation will benefit from having her in the halls of Congress.”

“It was a pleasure to meet with Senator Duckworth yesterday and discuss opportunities to collaborate and bring home results for the hardworking men and women of Central and Southern Illinois,” said Representative-elect Budzinski (D-IL-13). “It is an honor to be a member of the Illinois Congressional Delegation and I look forward to working with everyone in the 118^th Congress.”
