Monthly Disclosure Reports

As a candidate for elective office in the Citizen Potawatomi Nation, I am required to file public disclosure reports detailing all campaign contributions exceeding $50, as well as itemized campaign expenditures over $100. These reports ensure accountability by including information such as the names, addresses, and amounts contributed by supporters, in accordance with Section 4-1-132 of the Election Code.

To demonstrate my commitment to transparency and trust, I am publishing my monthly disclosure reports here for public access, which will include all campaign expenditures and contributions regardless of dollar amount. This reflects my belief in open and honest governance and my dedication to keeping citizens informed.
