What a day!! 🇺🇸

We were thrilled to host Darren Bailey and Aaron Del Mar at Defense Depot yesterday as a stop on the Fix Illinois Tour!

A huge thank you to everyone who showed up, joined the conversation, and helped make the event such a success. We loved seeing so many people come together for a productive conversation about the future of Illinois.

We were also excited to give Darren and Aaron a tour of the building and let them get a firsthand look at everything Defense Depot has to offer.

Thank you to everyone who came out and made it a great day! 🙌🏼
