| Arc Action Alert on Monday and the Senate
|
| Monday, September 22, 2008 |
Your calls to the local offices of your Senators have been very effective! Thank you! On Monday continue your calls only this time the Springfield office is the target! We cannot take anything for granted and we want to show strong bi-partisan support which means, both Democrats and Republicans are supporting the restoration of the cuts to disability and human services. By the way, the Senate has also called a general session for Monday so, if this is true, the Senate would be able to concur with the House action of restoration of the budget cuts! All of the Senators I talked to on Friday indicated they were getting many calls on the restoration of the cuts and intended to support our efforts on: Senate Bill 1103 and House Bill 6350. See letter below for talking points. Tony Paulauski The Arc of Illinois 708-206-1930

Whatever the agreement on revenue, the needs of persons with disabilities and mental illness are ongoing every day and must be addressed in the FY08 budget. The Coalition urges the General Assembly’s to equally support maintaining quality of services for individuals currently receiving them and expansion of services and supports for those who wait.
