Happy New Year

We wrapped up 2021 and the Illinois Senate Democratic Caucus wants to thank you for your work to keep your community safe through another year of the pandemic. We wish you a happy New Year, and hope it brings joy, happiness and health!

 

New year, new laws

As the new year starts, a number of new laws take effect – and many might just help your daily life.

Nearly 300 laws are officially on the books as of Jan. 1 – from one that gives students excused mental health days, to another that ensures pharmacies are being up front about their prices.

The Illinois Senate Democratic Caucus has selected 10 new laws we think may be of interest to you.
