Town Hall meeting on Illinois Budget Impasse
The small business community, non-profit organizations, college students, local municipalities, and everyone else being hurt by the Illinois Budget Impasse must come together and demand an end to the state's destructive political stalemate. With the coming of April 2016, the FY16 budget impasse entered its tenth month. Political inaction is costing jobs, hurting non-profits and devastating the state's economy.
There has never been a more important time to get engaged and make your voices heard. We invite you to join us at a Town Hall event and send this powerful, non-partisan message to our state's elected officials: Pass a responsible budget and enact the reforms necessary to revive the Illinois economy. This free event will feature representatives from the non-profit and small business communities along with college students and other folks talking about how the state budget deadlock has affected them. We will also discuss ways to use our critical mass to press lawmakers for a solution to save jobs and the Illinois economy.For those of you unable to attend in person, the event will also be live-streamed so that folks can get together, watch and participate interactively from different locations. It should be exciting to see the small business community mobilize and speak with a strong, non-partisan voice.
