In bid to unseat Budzinski, Wilson calls for tax cuts, deregulating energy suppliers

Republican Jeff Wilson is pitching himself as a no-nonsense alternative to Democratic politicians who have fought with the Trump administration. The former Champaign County board member is running to unseat U.S. Rep. Nikki Budzinski, D-Springfield, in Illinois’ 13th congressional district. His platform centers on affordability, national security and protecting the Constitution. Wilson said he’s running to support the Trump administration’s “America First” agenda, which includes immigration crackdowns, withdrawal from the Paris Climate Accord and investments in domestic coal mining. Wilson also said he supports Medicaid and Affordable Care Act cuts passed in the Trump-backed One Big Beautiful Bill Act last year. He said he wants to permanently eliminate taxes on tips and overtime, extending other tax cuts passed in the omnibus budget bill. The Republican candidate has also said he’s running on a “common sense” platform against DEI programs, LGBTQ+ education in schools and transgender children’s participation in youth sports. “The Democratic Party is going over the cliff at an exponential rate, and I don’t want to see that happen here in Illinois. And I take it the people of central Illinois and the Land of Lincoln — with those values of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness —
