Put Maggie Trevor's experience to work in SpringfieldOct 14, 2018 5:00 AM - Recently, I attended a forum in Arlington Heights to hear from several candidates who are seeking local office. Like any Illinois taxpayer concerned about the budget and health care in our state, I listened to those who offered real solutions to our problems. I was impressed with Maggie Trevor's answers to the questions raised in the forum. She understands what needs to happen in Springfield, unlike our current state representative. I think Maggie's experience speaks for itself, and her common-sense approach is what is necessary to get things done. She is a former university professor, health care researcher and entrepreneur -- unique qualifications that make her well-equipped to tackle Springfield's complex problems.
