In the month of August, we brought in a total of $2881.71. So far in September, we've brought in $342.71. Again, we just paid for a petition drive and need to replenish our coffers. Please reach into your couch cushions, put aside a few coffees, and give whatever you can spare, large or small, to help rebuild. My all-time haul as ED is $11,896.63 and up $516.01 from our last BOD meeting. Registration for Spook the State: 2022 LP Illinois State Gala is open. We will need to add more verbiage ourselves about the event, but we can start promoting. I will draft an email promoting Gala sales going live. I also plan to send an appeal aimed at new members since 2019 welcoming them to the party, thanking them for their support, directing them to help, and asking for a donation. I also plan another general fundraising appeal. I also sent out an email appeal on behalf of Bill Redpath's campaign and plan to do so with the other statewide candidates. 9 of the top 20 months for contribution aggregate have been since April 2021. I have begun circulating a petition to be on the Chicago Police District Council in the 14th District. Three members are chosen at large. I will have more info on my campaign as the Chicago municipal petition drive continues on. The UIC library will be picking up materials for the archive on Friday. If you want to donate, you have until Friday or until the next pick-up. Best, Justin Tucker Executive Director, Libertarian Party of Illinois

If you are not a Precinct Committeeperson, please consider becoming one. If you are in an established county, start planning the next PC elections. Meanwhile, the information on https://lpillinois.org/precinct-committeemen/ should be updated. In the month of November, we brought in $656.67. In December, we brought in $805.26. My all-time haul as ED is $19,717.72. We secured a critical donation from of our Lifetime Members, impressed with our performance in November. I am running a write-in campaign for the 14th District Chicago Police Council, along with Chris Laurent, who will be our first elected LPIL member to Chicago municipal government. My competition is associated with a local progressive organization that is well-funded and has Chris Laurant also recently received coverage in the Chicago Reader. I have also been making contacts with several Chicago aldermanic candidates, including Andy Schneider, who has given me considerable attention as a potential constituent. I even got him to call me "Tucker" as my friends in Missouri call me. I helped plan a Chicago Mayoral Forum with LPC. Four candidates RSVP'd, including Paul Vallas and Willie Wilson but Wilson was the only candidate who appeared. The forum received coverage on the local CBS affiliate and likely was alerted to the event through a media alert the LPC sent. Thanks to Mandy Parsons and Paul DiMasi for helping us build up our press list. I also attended a meeting of the Blexit Foundation for a Martin Luther King Day lunch. The state organizer for the Convention of States was in attendance and I would recommend to the convention committee keep them in mind as a vendor and session speaker. We should also remember Blexit Foundation as a vendor as well. I do not recommend the organization Team Illinois, as it appears to be a Christian ministry and not a pro-school choice organization. I will continue to donate items to our archive at the UIC library. As some of you guys have just spent lots of money on Libertarian memorabilia, I encourage you to use the archive for safekeeping in case of a disaster like a fire. If you want to donate, let me know and I can help. Best, Justin Tucker Executive Director, Libertarian Party of Illinois

I sent several e-mails to the membership about participating in our survey, to which we had hundreds of replies. Those results should be available from Field Ops. I wrote a fundraising and candidate recruitment blurb in Mandy's latest newsletter. I plan to send another fundraising and candidate recruitment appeal later this week. Also had a discussion with Chapter Development Director Paul Di Masi. We want to assure you that we will assist chapters in any way we can. We are at your disposal and have the tools to help grow. Reforming how local chapter relate with the state party may be a solution worth discussing. The Cook County Libertarian Central Committee recently met to fulfill bylaws obligations. We discussed parades and Cook County districts we did well in. We met in Blue Island and plan to meet in and around Berwyn after this month. I also appointed Township and Ward Committeepersons and informed the Committee of the petitioning process for Ward Committeepersons in the primary election. I will have all the new documents to the Precinct Director soon. Please march with Chicagoland Libertarians in the upcoming Chicago Pride Parade on Sunday. We will be lining up on Broadway north of Montrose. Follow up with me or See LPC's Facebook for more details. Russ and I continue to host a new member welcome meeting. This month's was sparsely attended but May's had several eager newbies. One is looking to help start a chapter in the West Cook suburbs. Feel free to call me on the new state party line, which can be found on the front page of the website. Thanks, IT Division, for setting that up.
