Transparency NOW in Illinois!

From Americans for Prosperity, Illinois:

Urge your Senator to Support Transparency in IL Government

Take Action!

Support House Bill 35

Welcome Activist! Great News – your voices are being heard!

HB 35 passes the House of Representatives unanimously!
It’s now time to turn the heat on the Illinois State Senate!


AFP-IL has been working with lawmakers to develop one of the strongest pieces of transparency language in the state's history. House Bill 35, The Illinois Accountability Act, has just unanimously passed the House of Representatives.

It’s now time to turn the heat on the Illinois State Senate…

Governor Quinn provided much hope in his proposed reform agenda. AFP looks forward to working with the governor to enact some of these much needed reforms. However, there should be no rush to pass a tax and spend budget until a process is in place that provides a review of how every tax dollar is spent and to justify those expenditures in a transparent forum.


Passing HB 35 is the first step towards holding elected officials accountable for how they're spending our tax dollars.

Contact your Senator NOW
and tell him or her that Illinois taxpayers deserve transparency in government.
