This weekend, we took the first step in organizing the fight against Donald Trump.

On Saturday, I joined Massachusetts State Treasurer Deb Goldberg and Rhode Island State Treasurer James Diossa as voting members of the Democratic National Committee at the DNC Winter Meeting, and we took the stage to talk about how Democratic Treasurers nationwide are fighting to hold corporations accountable, protect our workers and our environment, and make the American Dream accessible to all.

I want to congratulate Chair Ken Martin on his election as the leader of our party, and I look forward to working with him as we continue the fight for the working families both here in Illinois and Nationwide. While the road ahead is long, I know that Democrats everywhere are ready and willing to stand up to Trump and his divisive and hateful agenda by getting good, progressive leaders elected to office! … See MoreSee Less

I've been waiting to hear a decisive answe to counteract the madness!!

We stand with you!

Yes!!!! So glad to see this !

Thank you, Mike! Keep up the fight! We are with you!

It’s about time y’all showed up to the fight.

Let us all come together to move our nation forward and turn around the craziness we wake up to every day !

What’s next? I told Congresswoman Budzinski all service minded legislators should be showing up AS ONE on the Capitol steps. This response is as critical as 9/11 and demand rational actions from both sides of the aisle. Locally, unseat Mary Miller, a scourge on Democracy.

Thank you. But omg where was the turnout on election day? I'll never understand people not engaged in their future

keep up the good work Mike frerichs.

Thank you!

Yea Mike………..

Thank you, Mike.

That’s a wrap on 2024!

This was a whirlwind of a year; I marched in parades, canvassed with candidates, and, most of all, celebrated my boys’ first birthday!

Of course, Vice President Harris’s loss in the 2024 elections was a disappointment, and just like you, I am deeply concerned about what will happen in our country over the next four years. But as my children have taught me, hope and resilience are powerful things.

As some of you may know, my boys Theo and Max were born prematurely, and had to spend the first weeks of their lives in the NICU. As a parent, I never imagined that I would have to watch my sons struggle to survive, but these two brave little fighters hung on and refused to give up. To this day, I am still in awe of their strength, and the strength of my wife and their mother, Erica. They taught me perseverance, resilience, and most of all, hope.

It is with their lessons that I enter 2025. No matter what happens over the next four years, I ask that you maintain your hope in the face of adversity, just like my boys did. It is only with hope that we will find the strength to keep fighting for better neighborhoods, a better state, and a better country.

I want to wish you a very happy #newyear, and I look forward to continuing the fight for our neighbors and our communities in 2025, in 2026, and in every year after that.
