FY 2011 Illinois Budget Travesty!

Please contact the Governor to express your outrage over cuts to disability services and the lack of payments and long-term funding solutions for these important programs.

Everyone must take part in the statewide campaign to contact Governor Quinn to let him know that Illinois needs to pay its overdue bills and that disability services need to have our state funding restored.

We must continue to do everything possible to bring Illinois up to the national average in its funding of community developmental disability support programs.

In addition, please use and forward this information to contact the Governor by email.  Email instructions are also below.

Governor Quinn, Its time to act on behalf of people with developmental disabilities.

Ensure that disability organizations promptly receive the state funding owed to them, prevent people with disabilities from being used as pawns in the budget process and provide the leadership and funding to fix Illinois' finances for the long term.
