League Action in September

10/3/23

Representing 3600 members across the state, the League teams up with other organizations so that all of our voices are amplified.

  • LWV of Illinois signed onto a letter to the Illinois States Attorneys Association stressing the importance of their compliance with implementation of all elements of the Pretrial Fairness Act, including non-cash bail, which went into effect September 18. The letter was authored by our coalition partner, Illinois Network for Pretrial Justice.  

  • LWV of Illinois signed onto a letter aimed at reducing housing banishment laws for ex-offenders who are attempting successful re-entry into the community.  The bill is supported by our coalition partners: Housing Action Illinois and the Illinois Justice Project.
