SPRINGFIELD – Under legislation sponsored by State Senator Suzy Glowiak Hilton, the state’s sexual assault services voucher program would cover payment for transportation following treatment, removing barriers for survivors in a time of need.

“The aftermath of a traumatic event can be incredibly emotional, painful and challenging,” said Glowiak Hilton (D-Western Springs). “This legislation aims to improve access to crucial services, allowing survivors to focus on healing and recovery.”

After an individual receives medical care for a sexual assault, hospitals issue a voucher that a patient can use for related health care expenses. The voucher is valid for 90 days from the date of their hospital visit and can cover costs such as ambulance rides, medical forensic or laboratory services, pharmacy expenses and follow-up health care treatment.

“The governor’s proposed budget reflects Illinois’ continued commitment to progress in education, economic opportunities and fiscal responsibility. A balanced budget remains a top priority alongside making smart decisions to protect families and sustain vital programs that serve our communities.

“Investing in education from preschool to college is critical to preparing future generations and building our economy. In recent years, Illinois has made significant strides in improving access to K-12 education, recruiting and retaining dedicated teachers and setting up our students for success. In building on this momentum, I was pleased to see continued funding for career and technical education programs, as well as MAP grants to help students seeking a college degree.

“Illinois has also strengthened its business climate, creating thousands of jobs throughout the state. The governor’s proposed plan includes a framework to support job training programs, entrepreneurship and innovation, while further enhancing our state’s competitiveness.

“As we move forward with budget negotiations, I am committed to working with my colleagues to refine this proposal, ensuring it reflects a responsible and sustainable path forward for our state.”

Welcome

Welcome! It's an honor to serve the residents of the 23rd State Senate District.

I encourage you to check my website regularly. I’ll provide frequent updates on crucial legislative issues concerning our district and state.

This site serves as a resource for information on municipal and state services, community events and other opportunities available to local residents.

As your state senator, I look forward to working in a bipartisan manner to promote compromise and collaboration and to find meaningful solutions to lower property tax bills, ensure our schools and universities have the resources to be successful and keep our children safe.

Because I am committed to passing a balanced budget every year and properly funding Illinois’ pension system, I have declined to accept a pension as State Senator.

Please don’t hesitate to contact our office with your questions and concerns.

Sincerely,

Suzy Glowiak Hilton
State Senator, District 23
