Upcoming Events!
HB2748 and HB2433 Passed!
I am excited to announce that my bills: HB2748 and HB2433 passed on the House Floor last week! Both bills will help to further support and protect vulnerable populations in our community. HB2748 allows for an additional year of in-person learning for students with developmental disabilities, and their families, who have "aged-out" of their schooling during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Thank You to All of Our Volunteers!
Thank you to our awesome volunteer team for dedicating their Saturday morning to picking up trash at Fetzner & Woodscreek Park. Thank you to the Crystal Lake Park District, and Crystal Lake Chamber of Commerce for organizing this community-wide clean up event. Let’s stay committed to keeping District 66 clean and safe all year round!
