Rep. Feigenholtz takes a trip to Lincoln Park Zoo
August 8, 2019
Dear Neighbor,
In the blink of an eye, it's mid-August and we are already gearing up for our back to school drive. Time flies...especially during Chicago summers.
In June, we marched in the Pride Parade with Mayor Lightfoot and Governor Pritzker through the heart of our community. Pride is the most festive event in the 12th district every year. This year marks the 50th anniversary of the Stonewall Riots which made the event more meaningful than ever.
In July, we kicked-off our district-wide 'Listening Tour' reconnecting with neighbors and their concerns. We have a busy tour schedule ahead with health care providers, small businesses, seniors and block parties. We'll be posting our schedule and hope you can join us as we visit around the neighborhood.
While uncertainty looms in the wake of Washington's instability, Governor Pritzker has signed a long list of progressive bills marking this past session as the most historic legislative session.
Our work is far from done. Property tax reform is our next big project and I am ready to serve on the newly formed Property Tax Task Force which the Governor appointed me to last week.
In addition, when the Uptown DHS office closed people had to trek all the way to Skokie to get services. We rallied with our community and our voices were heard. Last week Secretary Grace Hou said she is 100 percent supportive of reopening a Northside DHS office. Stay tuned for more details.
We will be launching our annual school supply drive throughout August and September. Details for supply donations are below.
It is always the highlight of my day to connect with people in the 12th district. I look forward to seeing you at block parties, street fairs and in the community.
Warmest regards,
Sara Feigenholtz
State Representative
12th District
