ILA Legislative Coordinators are extending the invitation to attend the North Suburban & Chicago Library Legislative Meetup to the following legislators beginning in mid-October. ILA staff will update this page as we receive responses so you'll be able to check to see if your legislators will be attending.
If your legislator(s) haven't RSVP'd yet, reach out and invite them; they love to hear from their constituents! Include the above linked PDF invite so they'll have all the details. Legislative staff are welcome to attend, especially if the representative or senator isn't able to attend.
Note: If you do not see a legislator below, they will be invited to a different meetup.
