US Senate, IL

Raja Krishnamoorthi

Raja Krishnamoorthi is one of two climate champions running in the Democratic primary for the critical Senate race in Illinois.

ON THE ISSUES

  • Earned a 98% lifetime score on LCV’s National Environmental Scorecard
  • Committed to bold climate action

WHY THIS RACE MATTERS

  • Current Representative for Illinois' 8th Congressional District
  • Open Senate seat previously held by Senator Dick Durbin
  • Climate champion Juliana Stratton is also running in the Democratic primary
  • Holding this open seat will help take back a pro-environment, pro-democracy majority in the Senate so we can make further federal climate progress
