Bart Durham Posted November 16, 2022 Report Share Posted November 16, 2022 Great news to report, the River Access Bill has been filed and the legislative process for passage of the Bill will begin, see attached from Eliot Clay of the IEC (Illinois Environmental Council): Hey all! Our bill has just been filed as HB 5844. A big thanks to Rep. Yang Rohr and her staff for getting this organized. You can find IEC's action alert here: https://ilenviro.salsalabs.org/2022waterwayaccess/index.html Please feel free to share this with partners or copy for your own organization's alert. On timing: my guess is that this will have a chance of moving during the next week of Veto session, beginning November 29th. And lastly, thank you all for your work and support on this! Let's get it done! ELIOT CLAY | STATE PROGRAMS DIRECTOR eclay@ilenviro.org [(217) 622-3229] HQ: 520 E Capitol, Springfield Office: 70 E Lake St, Ste 1500, Chicago ILEnviro.org Support IEC's work by becoming a member today!
