Brad Schneider Sworn in as Illinois' 10th District U.S. Congressman

WASHINGTON, D.C. - Democrat Brad Schneider was sworn-in to office as the Illinois' 10th District United States congressional representative as part of the 115th Congress on Tuesday.

“It is a true honor to represent the Tenth Congressional District, and I am humbled by the trust the voters placed in me as a voice for our communities in Washington,” Schneider, from Deerfield, wrote in a news release.

Schneider replaced Bob Dold, who served the 10th District for two non consecutive terms. This is Schneider's second non consecutive term in office.

Schneider also wrote:

“Our district was clear about the values it wants represented in Washington and I will be a tireless advocate for our shared priorities: building an economy that works for everyone, protecting and expanding access to affordable healthcare, maintaining America’s leadership role in changing and dangerous world, and tackling the hard problems of reducing gun violence, reforming our immigration system, and fighting global climate change... My offices are here to serve you, so do not hesitate to get in touch for help with a federal agency, information on legislation, or just to share an opinion or a good story. I look forward to hearing more and getting to work for you.”
