Fight for Illinois

Fight for lower taxes. Fight for safer streets. Fight for common sense.

The powerful interests that run Illinois are united. Everyday Illinoisans are divided and discouraged, and every year things get worse. Fight for Illinois is where people who are tired of the decline come together and fight for the Illinois we deserve. This app puts that fight in your pocket.

START WITH YOUR ZIP CODE
Enter your ZIP and the app is built for where you live: the meetings, alerts, data and videos for your community. No account is needed to look around. A free account unlocks Videos, Events and Issues.

KNOW WHEN IT MATTERS
Take Action alerts tell you when there is a public hearing, a vote, a petition or a meeting worth showing up for near you, and give you one clear way to act: a script for a call, a link to sign, or the meeting details.

SHOW UP WHERE IT COUNTS
Events lists every upcoming public meeting in your ZIP code, near you, or statewide, with a calendar view. RSVP to add a meeting to your phone's calendar and get a reminder the day before.

SEE WHAT YOU ARE PAYING FOR
Property taxes, school report cards, public salaries and local pension funding for your community, drawn from public records and presented plainly, with the source cited on every page.

FOLLOW THE FIGHTS THAT MATTER TO YOU
Punitive taxation, waste and fraud, failing schools, corruption, public safety, jobs. Follow an issue and its updates lead your Home screen.

WATCH THE SHORT VERSION
Short videos explain the numbers behind the headlines. Save the ones you want to come back to, and send one to a neighbor by text.

READ THE FULL STORY
News and data written for your area, with pictures, and a share link that opens the piece for anyone.
