In Q4, Laura Fine Raised More Money from Trump Donors Than From Illinois Ninth District Residents
EVANSTON, IL — Recently released campaign finance reports show that state Sen. Laura Fine’s congressional campaign raised more money in the fourth quarter of 2025 from donors who previously gave to Donald Trump ($53,350) than from donors living in Illinois’ 9th Congressional District ($32,795). Since launching her campaign, Fine has taken in nearly $60,000 from Trump donors, who have collectively given more than $200,000 to Trump’s political committees (link).
“Laura Fine’s fundraising tells you everything you need to know about whose side she’s on,” said Biss for Congress Campaign Manager George Lundgren. “Fine raised more money from donors who backed Donald Trump than from people who actually live in the 9th District last quarter, and those same donors have poured hundreds of thousands of dollars into Trump’s political operation. With Chicagoland and our democracy under attack, voters deserve a representative who will fight for us, not for Trump donors looking for another ally in Washington.”
Biss has been endorsed by Congresswoman Jan Schakowsky (IL-09), U.S. Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-MA), Congressman Jesús "Chuy" García (IL-04), Congressman Sean Casten (IL-06), Congressman Bill Foster (IL-11), the Congressional Progressive Caucus PAC, Illinois Attorney General Kwame Raoul, and dozens of state and local leaders.
Biss has the strongest labor support of any candidate, including endorsements from Illinois AFL-CIO, the Chicago Federation of Labor, IUOE Local 150, UNITE HERE Local 1, Painters District Council #14, Mid America Carpenters Regional Council, IBEW Local 134, LiUNA Chicago Laborers District Council, SEIU Illinois State Council, the Iron Workers District Council of Chicago, Local 881 UFCW, IAFF Local 742, and Bricklayers & Allied Craftworkers ADC 1. Biss also has the endorsement of the League of Conservation Voters Action Fund, Natural Resources Defense Council Action Fund, 314 Action, Citizen Action Illinois, the 47th Ward Democrats, One People’s Campaign, Citizen Action Illinois, Abundant Housing Illinois, and more.
