Join me in cheering on Brandon Holtz (and his dad!) as he competes at the 2026 Masters.
Team Sorensen is proud to stand with AFSCME Local 1110 in their fight for fair wages and contracts.
Union workers are critical to Illinois State University and I will always have their backs.

Be well. Enjoy the sunshine.
Happy Easter! No matter your age or faith, it’s a day to begin life with purpose.
Trump was supposed to lower your costs.
