Illinois AG Candidate Joe Cervantez to join Adams County GOP for Monday Morning Breakfast

The Adams County Republican Party is thrilled to announce a special guest at our upcoming Monday Morning Breakfast: Joe Cervantez, the Republican candidate for Illinois Attorney General. This event promises to be a highlight for local Republicans eager to hear directly from a proven leader committed to restoring law, order, and accountability to our state.

Every Monday at 7:00 AM (except holidays), Adams County Republicans gather at the Quincy American Legion for a hearty breakfast, engaging discussions on local government, and updates on the political landscape. It’s the perfect opportunity to connect with fellow patriots, fuel up on coffee and camaraderie, and stay informed on issues that matter most to our community.

On Monday, October 20th, at 7:00 AM, we’ll be joined by Joe Cervantez, a Marine Corps veteran, seasoned prosecutor, and dedicated public servant from southern Illinois. As the former Jackson County State’s Attorney, Cervantez brings a wealth of experience to his statewide campaign. He launched his bid for Attorney General in August 2025, emphasizing a no-nonsense approach to public safety, ending the politicization of the justice system, and breaking Illinois’ Democratic “triplex” of statewide offices that he says prioritizes party loyalty over the people.

“I believe the Attorney General’s office should serve as the people’s lawyer, not the party’s,” Cervantez has stated in recent interviews. With a career that includes prosecuting serious crimes, advocating for drug courts to combat addiction, and fighting for reforms in juvenile justice, Cervantez is laser-focused on practical solutions: cracking down on violent crime, protecting law enforcement, and ensuring the rule of law applies equally to all. His vision aligns perfectly with core Republican values of smaller government, personal responsibility, and stronger communities.
