Statement from Beniamino Capellupo: executive director SEIU Illinois State Council:

“The despicable attack by Senator Kirk today shows a shameless disrespect for his own hardworking constituents, who he has spent his time in the Senate attacking. He didn’t find SEIU corrupt when he came hat in hand asking us for a campaign contribution. But what’s REALLY corrupt is Kirk’s shameless allegiance to Wall Street banks and to the Bruce Rauner and Donald Trump agenda. Lagging in the polls, the man is plainly desperate to save a seat that he will lose because he so often votes against the interests of the working families of Illinois.”
