My wife and I were both very engaged in trying to defeat Trump. We knocked on doors in three states.

Let's remember that Bruce Rauner has every interest in getting stories out there that hurt Democrats.

Great success doesn't come in short periods of time.

Part of being a top-20 firm is mind-share.

We're trying to make money, trying to add a zero onto our net worth.

The fact that my father set out on his own to build Hyatt - a business the family was not in and a business he was learning about as he was building it - is instructive.

I come with bad genetics, personally.

To me, the special parts of the day - and also the ones that fit with a full-time job - are bedtime and wake-up time. So I try really hard to be there for my kids as many of those nights and mornings as I can.

No matter how much wealth anybody has, family problems are about the same across the board.

The idea of investing in entrepreneurs who are building things from scratch, where I can participate in their dream, was very, very exciting to me.

I hate the term 'philanthropist.'

When you're someone who cares about making a difference in the world, and you have resources to do that, you have literally hundreds of choices you could make about how to do that.

There are many successful startup funders who are looking for ways to make a difference in the world.

Governor Rauner talks about what he might get done or what he tried to get done. It's past time for all his talk. It's time for action. It's what I've been doing my whole life.

You know why I'm running for governor? Because everything we care about is under siege from President Donald Trump and Bruce Rauner.

Black and brown communities are significantly and disproportionately impacted by deficiencies in our criminal justice system.

When I'm governor, we're not going to be silent like Bruce Rauner. Illinois will be a firewall against Donald Trump's destructive and bigoted agenda.

If you're governor of a state, and you have nothing to say when the president attacks the people that you represent, you are complicit.

It takes a tough, stand-up governor to stand up to the president of the United States - speaking out against the president, speaking out against his policies and, more than that, having actual policies that will help expand health care while... Trump is trying to diminish it for Illinois families.

As an elected official, an advocate for children, and an educator, Glenn Poshard has always fought for what's right.

Illinois needs a single-payer health care system, and as governor, I will take the steps to get us there.

Health care is a human right, and single-payer health care will deliver quality, affordable care to every Illinoisan.

Single-payer is about making our society a better place. It's about putting people over profits.

We all know Illinois has big challenges. And under Gov. Rauner, things have only gotten worse.

Small ideas won't help Illinois' future.

The challenge in multi-lateral negotiations is not to lose sight of one's over-arching goal in the midst of the cacophony of opinions at the bargaining table.

For decades, Iran has covertly worked to develop a nuclear weapons program and has repeatedly violated its international obligations.

I'm a progressive.

I'm an independent thinker and independent leader. I have been my whole life.

When you're governor, you've got to step up to the plate; you've got to make a proposal for a balanced budget. That's the requirement. And then you've got to sit down and negotiate if the folks that you need to work with disagree with you on points.

My great-grandfather came here as a refugee from the pogrom in Ukraine.

Rauner stands silent as Trump assaults our basic rights.

I have been fighting to protect women's healthcare and reproductive rights for decades.

Unfortunately, Bruce Rauner is more committed to playing politics than fighting for Illinois women and families.

The basic right to quality and affordable health care is under assault by Donald Trump and Republicans in Washington.

Rauner needs to tell Illinoisans what essential health benefits he intends to keep covering in Illinois.

Bruce Rauner needs to lead, and until he does, we must fight to hold him accountable.

With Donald Trump as president and Republicans in control of Congress, our healthcare is under attack.

I've been honored to take part in protests and events across Illinois, joining with thousands of you in the resistance, making calls, sending letters, and making sure Washington understands that we will not allow the ACA to be repealed.

Illinois has the opportunity to lead the country in providing more affordable health care options to its citizens.

Setting a tone of inclusiveness and ensuring protection for all begins at the top, whether from the White House or the State House.

There are not 'many sides' in the fight against hatred and bigotry. There is only right and wrong.
