All About Witness Slips

Posted By: Jennifer Downing Legislative News, Metro West News,

As we gear up for fall session, we thought we’d talk about witness slips!

A witness slip, in the context of Illinois state government, is a mechanism for individuals and organizations to express their position on a particular bill to legislators. You can use this public record to share your support or opposition of a bill being considered in committee.

 The Illinois Municipal League has created a helpful step-by-step instruction document and we've added to our Resource page.

Take a few moments to familiarize yourself with the process now so you can be prepared when session begins. Make your voice heard!
