Folks, Good News: Illinois Senate Bill 2516 made it TEMPORARILY out of the insurance committee!!
This is THANKS to all of you who placed calls to your Senators and the Insurance Committee. This is fantastic and we need to continue our calls! Your phone calls, postcards and letters are working!!
What happens now?
It has been re-referred to the Assignment Committee. Why? We are still working on the amendment language of the bill. A team of LEGAL professionals, who have strong background in lobbying, are providing their wonderful talent to help me out.
What do we need to do?
We need to call the Assignment Committee:
Targeted Members & phone numbers are as follows:
Senator James F. Clayborne, Jr………..217-782-5399
Senator Dale A. Righter………………….217-782-6674
Senator Kirk W. Dillard…………………..217-782-8148
Also, we need to continue to call the remaining Insurance Committee Members as follows:
Senator William R. Haine…….217-782-5247
Senator Bill Brady…………….217-782-6216
Senator J. Bradley Burzynski: 217-782-1977
Senator Dan Duffy……………217-782-8010
Senator Dale E. Risinger……..217-782-1942
Senator Dave Syverson……..217-782-5413
Lastly, we need to get work on getting more Senators to sign on as co-sponsors. I realize this is a lot of work… however it takes ALL of us to make this happen. It is important to share your story with your Senator and tell them how important this bill is for you or a loved one. Remind your Senators that you are a tax payer and a voter… Please be respectful when you call your Senators. If you have questions, please feel free to contact me via email: jchavez@progresscil.org or call me at 630-324-0281, please do leave a message along with your name and your contact number.
Thank you to all of you for your support!
