Timeline

1941

In the redrawn 6th district, 41% of voters are from Newman's former district and 23% are from Casten's former district, according to calculations by Daily Kos.

On June 28, 2022, Newman lost the primary to Casten.

In January 2021, Newman voted to impeach President Donald Trump.

1964

Marie Newman (née Klassen; born April 13, 1964) is an American politician and marketing consultant who served as the U.S. representative from Illinois's 3rd congressional district from 2021 to 2023.

The district encompassed parts of southwestern Chicago as well as many of its nearby suburbs, such as Oak Lawn, Western Springs, and Lockport.

Newman was born Marie Klassen in Evergreen Park, Illinois, on April 13, 1964, at the Little Company of Mary Hospital.

She attended Carl Sandburg High School in Orland Park.

After attending Marquette University for a year and a half, she transferred to the University of Wisconsin–Madison, where she graduated with a bachelor's degree.

Newman worked for multiple firms as an agency executive.

1983

Bill Lipinski won the seat in 1983, when it was numbered as the 5th district (it has been the 3rd since 1993), and handed it to Dan in 2005.

On November 3, Newman won the general election, defeating Republican Will County Supervisor Mike Fricilone.

With 88% of the vote counted, she led by about 30,000 votes, and had received about 55% of the vote.

In October 2021, Democrats in the Illinois legislature passed a new congressional map that radically changed Newman's district.

The map placed Newman's home into a district with Representative Jesús "Chuy" García, who represents a majority-Hispanic district.

Newman announced that she would run in the redrawn 6th District, which overlaps her original district.

She thus challenged incumbent Representative Sean Casten in the 2022 Democratic primary.

2005

She began her own consulting firm in 2005.

She also established her own nonprofit to combat bullying after one of her children was bullied.

Governor Pat Quinn appointed her to a regional anti-bullying task force and Sears Holdings Corporation asked her to establish a national anti-bullying coalition of 70 nonprofit organizations.

Newman has worked on several Democratic campaigns for public office.

2015

Between 2015 and 2017 she lobbied for gun control measures such as background checks.

In April 2023, Newman was appointed chief executive officer of Little City Foundation, a social services organization serving people with intellectual and developmental disabilities.

Little City serves over 900 people through its residential facilities, day programs, and at-home assistance in northern Illinois.

Newman had a personal connection to Little City, having volunteered when she was young.

Two of her cousins received Little City services.

2016

Newman supported Bernie Sanders in the 2016 Democratic presidential primary in Illinois and Hillary Clinton in the November general election.

The day after Clinton lost, she applied to the Illinois Women's Institute for Leadership.

2017

By January 1, 2017, Newman had closed her business to turn her attention to politics full-time.

On April 10, 2017, Newman declared her candidacy for Illinois's 3rd congressional district, challenging Democratic incumbent Dan Lipinski, a member of the Blue Dog Coalition, who had held the seat since 2005, succeeding his father, who held it for 22 years.

Newman ran to Lipinski's left, and was endorsed by the Human Rights Campaign, the Progressive Change Campaign Committee, Planned Parenthood, EMILY's List, the SEIU state council, National Nurses United, the Illinois Federation of Teachers, the Feminist Majority Foundation, NARAL Pro-Choice America, Democracy for America, MoveOn, and Our Revolution, and several Democratic members of Congress, including Senator Kirsten Gillibrand of New York and Representatives Luis Gutiérrez and Jan Schakowsky, both Illinois Democrats.

Lipinski defeated Newman with 51.2% of the vote to her 48.8%.

2020

Newman was elected to the United States House of Representatives as the Democratic nominee, after defeating incumbent Dan Lipinski in the 2020 primary election.

Due to redistricting as a result of the 2020 United States Census, Newman in 2022 faced a choice between running in the heavily Hispanic 4th district which she had been drawn into, or against Sean Casten in a district with the majority of her former area.

Newman opted to run against Casten in the Democratic primary but was defeated.

In April 2023, Newman was appointed chief executive officer of Little City Foundation, a social services organization serving people with intellectual and developmental disabilities.

Newman ran against Lipinski again in the 2020 Democratic primary.

She received endorsements from Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and presidential candidates Senators Elizabeth Warren, Bernie Sanders, Cory Booker, and Kirsten Gillibrand, as well as Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot.

The race had special significance for progressive women's groups after other candidates they supported lost primary races earlier in March in Texas and the principal women candidates for the Democratic presidential nomination had ended their campaigns.

On March 17, 2020, Newman narrowly defeated Lipinski in the Democratic primary with 47.26% of the vote to his 44.72%.

Her victory ended the Lipinski family's 38-year hold on the district.
