Meet Dan Ugaste
Long before Dan Ugaste decided to get involved in Republican Party politics, Dan was involved in his community as a coach, as a volunteer firefighter and community volunteer. Dan is the kind person Ronald Reagan would describe as a “compassionate conservative”.
Dan’s Plan for Illinois
Life, Liberty, Family
Dan Ugaste values life, liberty and family above all else, but is continuously shocked by the actions of Illinois elected officials that put all he cherishes at risk.
He will help rebuild government with the same work ethic he employed to create a successful life for his family
Holding Government Accountable
Like all Illinois residents, the Ugaste’s have been bitterly disappointed in a Democrat state legislature controlled by Mike Madigan for 40 years that ran up $160 billion in debt while allowing the quality of life and economic prosperity to deteriorate.
Help Repair The Damage
The moral and economic fabric of Illinois that has been ripped by Madigan’s negligence can be repaired, but it will take strong leadership from responsible no-nonsense adults like Dan Ugaste who are prepared to make the hard choices to reverse 40 years of corrupt bargains.
Main Street Values
Like many Illinois families, the Ugaste’s built a life, a family and a home by working hard and expecting our elected officials to manage the government responsibly.
Protecting Liberty
It’s really not that hard to spend less than you tax, regulate without reducing personal liberty, and protect the lives and property of the citizens who depend on
