Rockford Mayor Tom McNamara is considering throwing his hat in the ring for the 17th district congressional seat currently held by Congresswoman Cheri Bustos.
“I haven’t made any final decisions,” McNamara said. “I’m absolutely considering the position… We as elected officials we’re here to make a difference in residents lives, and I think we can do a better job of that.”
McNamara has been Rockford’s mayor since 2017.
