Join town hall on state budget June 12

State Rep. Steve Andersson (R-Geneva) will be hosting a town hall to ask for input from area residents on the state budget at 7 p.m. Monday, June 12, in Community Room 104 at the Geneva Park District Sunset Community Center, 710 Western Ave.

The town hall is an opportunity for dialogue where Andersson hopes to discuss the end of spring legislative session, but also facilitate productive conversation about the current fiscal crisis and the budget.

Rep. Andersson encourages all area residents to attend to share their thoughts.

"Illinois is in a state of emergency," said Rep. Andersson. "I am looking to engage with the community to hear their thoughts, answer questions, and actively work toward finding a solution to our state's biggest problems."

Andersson has urged for action in the state House of Representatives and asked for compromise between lawmakers to reach an agreement before the close of session in Springfield.

The upcoming town hall is what he calls, "an effort to help move Illinois forward and find a solution that benefits residents and provides for the future of our state."

For information on the town hall, contact Rep. Andersson's district office at (630) 457-5460.
