We're working on our next edition of the e-newsletter.  I can't believe how many people have registered to receive these lately!  I get notices about quite a few people registering every day.  If you haven't done so yet, click here to register for them so you don't miss any future messages.

When you receive messages or e-newsletters from me, please forward them to all your friends, neighbors and co-workers. Some information I send won't be available anywhere else, so making sure information gets out to as many people as possible is important.

I think it's great this site is working the way it's supposed to, as an open form of communication between constituents and an elected official. Keep it up! Write to me through the contact form. Tell your friends about the information you find helpful here. Let them know that I do my best to answer each and every email I get.

To new site visitors... welcome! You'll find up-to-date stories in our News section from local and statewide news sources. In the Links section, we've provided great links to other websites we think you'll find helpful, including Illinois state agencies, local city and county offices, and district-wide tourist attractions.

To our regular visitors... we're updating information every day to ensure you stay informed about what's happening at home and in the State House.  Keep coming back to see what's new.

I thank you for your support and look forward to continuing my efforts on your behalf.

Sincerely,
