U.S. Representative, 1st District, Illinois
With
the 2008 presidential election less than a year away, Congressman Bobby
Rush of the 1st Congressional District of Illinois is eager to remind
people that change for the masses begins first with a single
individual. As a member of the Congressional Black Caucus, Rush’s
efforts are directed at preserving the political clout of black voters
through legislation and public policy. He encourages voters to realize
their purpose and power as it relates to improving African American
communities across the nation.
“We have to liberate ourselves using not only our political and
economic power but also the power of the holy spirit. We have to
liberate ourselves, no government is going to deliver us,” adds Rush. –
