Cook County Commissioner Donna Miller Launches Congressional Campaign

Cook County Commissioner Donna Miller is launching her campaign for Illinois’ 2nd Congressional District today, Wednesday, July 9, 2025, with an introductory video, linked here, that summarizes her family’s history of service and her plans to carry that legacy forward.
Miller raised her family in the south suburbs and grew up in Chicago with her family’s generational story rooted in Black migration.
It is that legacy of determination, perseverance and public service that prompted Miller to serve on the Cook County Board of Commissioners and to launch her campaign to serve as the next congresswoman from the 2nd District.
She states in the video, “My great-grandfather was a Pullman Porter; he helped build the Black middle class. My grandmother, mother and sister were all teachers, and my dad wore this country’s uniform his entire career. I’ve carried that legacy forward. On the Cook County Board, I’ve worked to expand healthcare access, lower costs and deliver better care – especially for women and communities of color.

“I believe in an America where everyone who works hard can afford the essentials, where healthcare is driven by medicine, not politics, and where the long march toward equality, in its many forms, moves forward, not backwards.
“But today, Washington is tearing up so much of our progress for working families and giving tax breaks to billionaires. I refuse to let them. I’m running for Congress because I am determined to rise to the challenge of this fateful moment.”
Miller has received endorsements from elected officials across Cook County and support for her congressional candidacy is growing.
