AFP-Illinois State Director Jason Heffley highlighted Elik’s leadership in the Capitol.

“Illinois needs more principled leaders like Rep. Elik in Springfield fighting for Illinois taxpayers and reining in out-of-control government spending,” said Director Jason Heffley. “Rep. Elik has consistently prioritized fiscal responsibility over special interests, while also leading on AFP-supported legislation in the Capitol.
