CHICAGO – An effort to create more affordable housing for Illinois residents led by State Senators Mattie Hunter, Ann Gillespie and Sara Feigenholtz was signed into law by Governor JB Pritzker Thursday.
“I’ve advocated for equitable housing for a long time, and this year, affordable housing is more necessary than ever before,” said Hunter (D-Chicago). “People are still recovering from the financial struggles brought on by the pandemic, not to mention the eviction moratorium coming to a halt. I hope that affordable and equitable options prevail long after this pandemic is gone.”
