As the spring session gets going, and bills are being filed, Illinoisans can participate in the legislative process from the comfort of their own home by filing a witness slip to state their position on legislation.
These slips go into the record on each bill. They allow Illinoisans to express their support or opposition to a bill, and even offer testimony about their position. On some bills there have been thousands of witness slips filed by everyday Illinoisans who wanted to make their voices heard.
If there is a bill you feel strongly about, you can click here to find out how to share your thoughts with the General Assembly. As always, you can reach out to me directly with your comments or questions about any bill we are considering this spring by clicking here, or calling my office.
