Illinois Candidate ‘Nurse’ Lauren Underwood (D) Never Worked as a Nurse – IOTW Report

Illinois Candidate ‘Nurse’ Lauren Underwood (D) Never Worked as a Nurse

Breitbart: Democrat Lauren Underwood, 32, running for Congress in the far western suburbs of Chicago, has exaggerated her nursing career, pretending she worked as a nurse when she has never done so, a local newspaper reported Friday.

The Kane County Reporter dug into Underwood’s claims and found that while she had studied nursing and was a registered to practice nursing, “she never has, in Illinois, nor anywhere else.”

Instead, when she completed her education, Underwood worked for the Obama administration on Obamacare’s rollout — a project that was a disaster when it launched in 2013. (She now admits it was “not perfect.”)

She continued working for the Obama administration until the end of Obama’s term in 2017, then collected unemployment benefits before deciding to run for Congress, challenging incumbent Republican Randy Hultgren.  more here

  1. So she worked for Obama until Jan. 21, 2017, and has been on unemployment for a year before realizing the only place she could get a job is with the government? She apparently has no marketable value in the private sector, why would she magically have any in the public sector?

  2. This is totally acceptable in Illinois.
    Ms. Underwood self identified as a Nurse as early as 12 yrs. old when she played Doctor and nurse with a 17 year old neighbor boy.
    She will win the race and fit well with her democrat colleagues in the US House of Representatives.

  3. Is it me, or does the Democrat’s list of candidates for pretty much every office seem like the Most Wanted list? I don’t think there’s one of them that could stand a background check for a private sector job.
