In a heartfelt display of civic duty and respect, Congressman Eric Sorensen will escort 98-year-old WWII veteran Roald Zvonik to his polling station in Moline on Election Day. This marks a poignant moment, as Sorensen had previously assisted Zvonik in reclaiming his long-overdue military medals after a fire destroyed his original records. The pair, whose friendship blossomed following a medal award ceremony, will continue their public engagement, inviting media and offering a Q&A session post-vote. Sorensen’s ongoing commitment to his constituents is underscored by his office’s success in aiding over 1,800 Illinois residents, effectively returning more than $3.2 million to local families.
