SPRINGFIELD – With an estimated 57% of U.S. consumers purchasing ready-to-eat meals each month, State Senator Laura Ellman championed a new law that will ensure these increasingly popular options meet the same food safety standards as other food businesses.

“Families are relying more than ever on convenient meal options – they deserve the same level of safety and oversight no matter where their food comes from,” said Ellman (D-Naperville). “This law will close a gap in our current system while also helping to protect public health.”

SPRINGFIELD — A new law from State Senator Laura Ellman is set to give counties additional tools to support affordable housing development and address growing housing affordability challenges facing working families and middle-income residents.

“As housing costs continue to rise faster than incomes, more families are finding themselves priced out of the communities they work and live in,” said Ellman (D-Naperville). “This law will help local governments create more housing options while supporting mixed-income communities and long-term affordability.”
