Who are my U.S. senators in Illinois?
Right now (as of July 2026), Illinois' two U.S. senators are both Democrats: Tammy Duckworth – the junior senator, serving since 2017. Her current term runs through January 2029, so she's not up for reelection until 2028. Dick Durbin – the senior senator, serving since 1997. He's announced he will not seek re-election when his current term ends in January 2027, so this is his final year in office. LegalClarity Durbin's seat will be on the ballot this November, with Democratic Lt. Governor Juliana Stratton facing Republican Don Tracy in the general election. Whoever wins will take office in January 2027, replacing Durbin. Wikipedia
