Saving Taxpayers Dollars and Creating Efficiencies

Last week, Robin’s opponent tried to peddle misinformation about a Treasurer’s Office program that is saving taxpayer dollars and putting more money back into the pockets of Illinois residents.

Rutherford of Pontiac attempted to score political points by opting out of the Treasurer’s Office direct mail program, which has helped return $5.8 million in lost cash and assets to more than 5,000 Illinois residents the past two years – while saving the state $25,000.

Help Me Set the Record Straight

Yesterday my opponent began airing misleading commercials that not only distort my record and service in the Treasurer’s Office, but also challenges my character.  This ad is called “Integrity,” but shows anything but.  

Every major newspaper in the state has endorsed my candidacy, including The Chicago Sun Times, the paper my opponent uses to justify his attacks.  They state that I “have the experience to excel,” and the “smarts, honesty, and ability to work with others.”
