Pritzker rolls out $20 million PAC to boost Democratic House candidates

Published Updated



Gov. JB Pritzker (D-IL), speculated to be raising his national profile ahead of a possible 2028 presidential bid, is launching a new political action committee that plans to invest at least $20 million in Democratic House candidates running in the midterm elections.

The Ready for the Fight PAC takes inspiration from a key phrase used by the Illinois Democrat at his campaign speeches: “Are you ready for the fight?” An ad featuring Pritzker speaking of President Donald Trump in light of the midterm elections was released on Tuesday.
