PEORIA, Ill. – State Representative Ryan Spain of Peoria, who represents Illinois’ 73rd District in the Illinois House, officially launched his re-election bid this week.
“As we have finally seen justice served this year, I was proud to be one of three Republican legislators to convene the House Special Investigating Committee to uncover the actions of Michael Madigan and remove the stain of corruption in our state government. Even with a new Illinois Speaker, I remain committed to resolving the challenges in our state and delivering for families who want nothing more than to raise their children and grandchildren and see better opportunities in Illinois,” Spain says, who will seek the Republican party’s nomination in the March 17, 2026 Primary Election.
“I have eagerly led the fight in the Illinois House against a new Service Tax and fought against gerrymandering, in favor of Fair Maps. In doing so, my belief in our need for more unbiased courts has also grown and led to my filing legislation to create new ethics laws and conduct guidelines for Illinois Supreme Court justices, as well. Voters in downstate Illinois deserve strong conservative leaders to thoughtfully and strategically go to bat against the flawed policies which have driven our state into the ground.”
Spain serves as the Co-Chair of the Joint Committee on Administration Rules. He also serves as an expert in the House Republican caucus on healthcare policy, economic development, redistricting, election integrity and ethics reform.
The 73rd District consists of parts of Bureau, Henry, Lee, Marshall, Peoria, Rock Island, Stark, Whiteside and Woodford counties.
