July is National Park and Recreation Month. Parks benefit all communities by protecting nature and offering a scenic break from towns and cities. Take some time to get outdoors and enjoy our parks this month!

There are moments that require absolute moral clarity and principled application of the rule of law. This is that moment, I too dissent. The Supreme Court’s decision to limit the ability of judges to stop unconstitutional orders will cause irreparable harm.

I just received one of these scam texts that Illinois @ILSec warns about in this video. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to reach out our team. Protect your information from scammers.
THESE TEXTS AREN’T REAL! Scammers are targeting Illinoisans with fake texts threatening the suspension of driving privileges. If you receive one, don’t respond or click any links. Help us spread the word, especially to friends and family who may have been targeted. Stay vigilant!

Tonight SB1738 passed the House unanimously and will soon head to the Governor! This bill updates the personal property exemption amounts regarding consumer debt judgment, bringing outdated exemption limits in line with current dollar evaluations. #twill
