Illinois Petitions against funding Real ID:
According to C4L Organizer, Heather Danielowski
"Legislative support of Real ID comes from representatives of both political parties currently holding office at our state capitol. The party in power in Springfield will do anything to please the establishment in D.C., and the minority party is torn on the issue, as it was the Republicans in D.C. who originally passed the bill to begin with. As is the norm in Illinois, we cannot take for granted that either party will stand up for our rights! This battle can be won - but only if citizens all over the state actively participate."READ: Illinois Petition here.
