Update on Driver's Certificate for constituents of Kosel and Hassert

From ICIRR:
--

For all who care about Justice for Immigrants and Public Safety who reside in the following areas:
New Lenox, Mokena, Frankfort, Goodings Grove and the western portion of Orland Park

ACTION ALERT:  Please call State Representative RENEE KOSEL to express your *disappointment*

UPDATE:  Yesterday in Springfield, State Representative Renee Kosel (81st District) voted NO in the House Executive Committee to give Drivers Certificates to undocumented immigrants.  However, the bill (HB 4748, Sponsored by Rep. Eddie Acevedo), still advanced on a strong vote, 8 in favor and 4 voting against.

Thank you to all who called his office to urge Kosel to vote yes on this bill.  However,
we need to complete the job and call her again to make sure she knows that her constituents are watching her votes. 

Please call State Representative Renee Kosel at 708/479-4200 (Mokena) or 217/782-0424 (Springfield)
or email rkosel@aol.com

When you call her office, tell her staff: "I am disappointed with Representative Kosel's vote on HB 4748. We need safe roads."

If you are not sure if you live in Represenative Kosel's district, you can go to www.icirr.org and click "Take Action" to enter your address and confirm your elected representatives.

Thank you from the Illinois Coalition for Immigrant and Refugee Rights. For more information, visit www.icirr.org.
