The IL State Senate is called to order this afternoon at 3:00 p.m.. They’ll go directly to committee meetings.

Called everyone. Most are getting tired of answering the phone about this topic! Call ’em some more! Keep it up ladies and gents, we’re getting to ’em!!
A majority of the Dems and a couple of the Repubs aren’t answering their phones.
Gee, wonder why.
Keep MELTING their phone lines.

Called Sen. Johnson’s office and her secretary interrupted me and said: “Johnson, Syverson, Cultra, and most if not all Republican Senators are a ‘NO’ vote, so you don’t have to call anymore”. I replied, “Thank you, but I’ll call anyway. And tomorrow, and the day after. Have a great day”.
I just finished sending personalized faxes to all Illinois senators. I ended up with 73 total (both Springfield and district office numbers). Pretty much everyone with a working fax machine got a copy. I took me all night and I suspect it was an utter waste of time, but what else can we do at this point.
