U.S. Congressional Candidate Jim Carris (R-IL-10) said he was “energized” by the Lake County business community after addressing members of the Lake County Chamber of Commerce.
“I was honored to speak about my platform at the 2024 Lake County Chamber of Commerce Legislative Breakfast!” Carris posted on X. “I was truly energized by engaging with our vibrant business community, especially the dedicated small business owners facing today’s economic challenges.”
“Their call for less government oversight, reduced regulation, lower costs for goods and services, and greater access to resources resonates deeply with me,” he said. “With my background as a business leader, I understand what it takes to set companies up for success.”
Carris is running for the Illinois 10th Congressional District seat currently held by U.S. Rep. Bradley Schneider (D). A Lake County resident, Carris is a business owner, and worked in real estate and as an attorney.
He attended the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, received his MBA from the University of Notre Dame, and his J.D. from Loyola University Law School.
