CHICAGO: Jitendra “JD” Diganvker, a community activist, has now decided to plunge in at national level seeking Congressional seat as a Republican candidate from 8th Congressional districts in Illinois and in his own words this is with a view “to give a voice to the hard-working, middle-class Americans often ignored by career politicians in DC.”
JD understands the struggles of everyday Americans because he has faced those same struggles himself. After coming to America seeking opportunity, he has faced hurdles and difficulties worked long hours to support his family besides running entrepreneurial risks brining succeed and failures in the process.
These experiences have given him firsthand knowledge of how government is stifling entrepreneurs and job creators and weighing down families with unaffordable healthcare costs.
He has already commenced a petition drive getting thousands of signatures for his candidacy and is going all out for the nomination from the party. He has invited all to join Nextdoor, a private social network for the neighborhood.
It is the best way to stay in the know about what’s going on in your neighborhood-whether it’s finding a last-minute babysitter, learning about an upcoming block party, or hearing about a rash of car break-ins. There are so many ways our neighbors can help us. We just need an easier way to connect with them.
More than 160,000 neighborhoods across the country are using Nextdoor to share recommendations, safety tips, local events and simply to get to know one another better. Jitendra thinks it would be a great way for you to discover what’s going on in your neighborhood.
