Kudos to all the central Illinois individuals and groups that come to the State Capitol and talk with me and other state officials about the issues important to you!
My Senate Republican colleagues and I were pleased to welcomes Illinois veterans, and friends and families of service members to Springfield for the third annual Veterans’ Legislative Day April 29.
Special thanks to a group of veterans from Bloomington area (pictured at left) that stopped by the Capitol to say “hello” to Representative Dan Brady and me.
The Legislative Day provided briefings from members of the Veterans Affairs Committee in the Howlett Building, and opportunities for veterans to meet with legislators in the Capitol.
Lunch was also served to participants. Registration for the third annual event was 289 people -- the most ever!
