First of all, I apologize for our website being down last night. We received so many hits that it crashed. Hopefully, the problem is fixed.
As of right now, our bill (SB 1849) is not dead. There is a good chance that it will be called for a vote again today. Because we're still alive, I'm listing the names and phone numbers of three Representatives below. All three live in rural districts and represent many horsemen. And all three voted no yesterday. We have to flip these Reps. Call their offices and tell them the horse racing industry will disappear in Illinois if the bill does not pass.
Today is the last day of the session.
Representative Wayne Rosenthal - 217 782 8071.
Representative Bob Pritchard - 217 782 0425.
Representative Brandon Phelps - 217 782 5131.
