Talk to your legislators at July 4 weekend events
Your legislators are back in their districts and may be making public appearances this weekend at Fourth of July parades and events. This is your opportunity to tell them to keep working until they come up with a budget that does not under-fund early childhood and other human services programs.
- Print posters (in color or black and white) and bring them to parades or events to raise awareness about the need for increased revenue to adequately fund early childhood programs in Illinois.
- Seek out your legislator at these local events to voice your concerns in person. Read the talking points in this flyer which you can also distribute to event participants.
- Email your legislators and urge them to choose people over politics
