Good morning,
Monday night's reform discussion with Dan Seals and Daniel Biss was an informative and stimulating evening from start to finish. Every chair was filled and everyone left the NTD office with renewed determination to tell Springfield that we expect meaningful reform legislation in May. The next two Monday night meetings, should add to that spirit. |
Join Larry Suffredin and Mary Lou Aagard in a discussion the state of our state's campaign oversight. Monday night, May 4 at the the NTDO office.

On May 4 County Commissioner Larry Suffredin will discuss campaign transparency and Mary Lou Aagard of the Illinois League of Women Voters will speak about the present state of the Illinois State Board of Elections.

Re: Clean Up Campaign Finance Now. xx
Political corruption in Illinois defeats the will of
the people and costs the taxpayers millions of dollars. the time for
change is now. The first step is campaign finance reform. Please
demonstrate to the citizens of Illinois that you put the public
interest before the interests of big campaign contributors. We call
upon our legislators to act NOW to reform campaign finance reform in
Illinois. xxTo add your name click -- here -- then type "I want reform now!" and your name in the email subject line and hit "send." In mid-May, the NTDO will present Illinois'
legislative leaders with this petition for campaign reform signed by
hundreds of New Trier voters. |
