Illinois lawmakers are back in Springfield today–and they need to hear that Illinois must do better. That’s why people across the state are participating in the Responsible Budget Coalition’s statewide call-in day TODAY, January 13th.

We need a real budget solution like HB174–a plan to fairly raise the revenue we need to stop cuts and fully fund vital human services. 

By calling your representative, you will strengthen the call for a fair, responsible budget for Illinois families–one that will stop damaging cuts and protect our future.

Making the call is simple:

1. Find your representative and their phone number here.
2. Call them TODAY between 9am and 5pm.
3. Tell the person who answers the phone your name, where you live, and that you’re counting on them to protect funding for critical programs by supporting HB 174.
4. Spread the word! Make sure your friends, family and co-workers know that we’ll all do better with a responsible budget. Tell them to call today to make their voice heard.
5. Click here to let us know you made the call today to stop the cuts.
