There has been a lot of talk of public safety in the news recently. And rightfully so!
Keeping our communities safe has always been a shared priority of mine and the people I represent. That’s why I’ve focused on sponsoring and/or co-sponsoring several important measures this year to protect families, support law enforcement, and hold offenders accountable giving victims support and peace.
HB1140 & HB1467 – Would crack down on child predators by eliminating plea deals for grooming and strengthening penalties against those who target minors.
HB1468 – Would safeguard the personal information of first responders, prosecutors, and public officials from being maliciously exposed online.
HB1469 – Would expand the Sex Offender Registration Act to include human trafficking and involuntary servitude of minors.
HB1583 – Would allow schools to employ trained, certified school safety officers to keep children secure in the classroom.
HB3206 – Would increase penalties for fleeing from police to ensure dangerous drivers are held accountable.
And many more…
Everyone deserves to feel safe where they live. I will always fight for stronger laws, safer streets, and the peace of mind that every Illinois family deserves.
