IFI Update: Good News! Homosexual Teachers Bill Falls Short in the Illinois House
How did they vote?
You made a difference! Thank you for taking action on this bill!
Thanks in part to your phone calls, emails, and the work of our lobbyists, the Illinois House of Representatives in Springfield voted 43 to 67 (with 1 voting 'present') yesterday, defeating HB 4731, a bill that would have allowed homosexual partners of public school teachers to qualify as surviving spouses for purpose of survivor and death benefits.
