Illinois State House District 71 issued the following announcement on April 1
Rep. Tony McCombie sponsored House Resolution 686 in the Illinois House, proclaiming April Child Abuse Prevention Month. She passed the legislation through Committee in early March, but due to the General Assembly cancelling Session for most of March due to COVID-19, the resolution is currently left in limbo until the legislature can safely reconvene.
