Illinois residents have the opportunity to engage in the legislative process by filing witness slips on legislation. These documents allow individuals to record their stance on various bills, whether in support or opposition, and even provide testimony regarding their position.
The spring session has commenced, and numerous bills are being filed. The witness slips become part of the official record for each bill, providing a platform for Illinoisans to voice their opinions. In some cases, thousands of slips have been submitted by citizens eager to be heard.
For those who feel strongly about a particular piece of legislation, guidance is available online on how to communicate thoughts with the General Assembly. Residents can also reach out directly with comments or questions about any bill under consideration during this session.
