[Iabs-talk] HR188 Transitioning To Integrated And Meaningful Employment - New Illinois Co-sponsors

[Denise Avant]

Hello fellow Federationists,
 Good news! Yesterday,  Congressman Quigley and Congresswoman Duckworth officially signed on to HR 188.  They joined Congressman Gutierrez and Congresswoman Schakowsky.  Now Illinois has tied Florida and California for the most cosponsors, but I think with just a little more work, we can claim the title of state with most cosponsors.  Congresswoman Bustos and Congresswoman Kelly were both cosponsors last year, and I know we have members who live in their districts.  Congressman Rush also signed on last year. And let us not forget Congressman Danny Davis.
