CHICAGO | U.S. Rep. Adam Kinzinger, R-Ill., along with his four Illinois freshmen Republican colleagues — U.S. Reps. Randy Hultgren, Bob Dold, Bobby Schilling and Joe Walsh — has launched an initiative asking small-business owners to tell them what Washington can do to help their business create one more job.

On Monday, the five freshmen congressmen will seek out ideas from small-business owners in each of their districts via mail, email, phone and other means. Business owners will be asked to send their congressman an email or letter to let them know what action Washington must take in order for their business to be able to create one more job.

Small-business owners in the 11th District, which extends from the south suburbs to Bloomington, can send Kinzinger an email at IllinoisJobs11@mail.house.gov or a letter to the Joliet office — 2701 Black Road, Joliet, IL 60435 — by Jan. 6 with their job-creation suggestions.

Once all of the ideas and suggestions are collected, the congressmen will take them to Democratic leaders: Sen. Dick Durbin,  D-Ill.; Sen. Harry Reid, D-Nevada, the Senate majority leader; and President Barack Obama.
