[LPIL - Board of Directors] Bill HB5855

[scc17 at lpillinois.org]

All-

I think it’s important we get a resolution and press release out on 
this. It’s a bill as Libertarians we should die on. I’m out of town this 
week but can draft something when I return or someone else can take a 
crack at it before then.
