A new state law supported by State Representative Camille Y. Lilly, D-Chicago, will reinstate driving privileges for thousands of Illinois residents whose license was suspended for reasons unrelated to safety, such as the inability to pay parking tickets.  Governor Pritzker recently signed into law Lilly’s Senate Bill 1786, which prohibits the Illinois Secretary of State from revoking or suspending someone’s driver’s license for certain non-driving offenses, including unpaid ticket debts. The measure also calls for driving privileges to be reinstated to anyone whose license is currently suspended for these reasons. For more information, please contact Lilly’ constituent service office by calling 708-613-5939 or by emailing StateRepCamilleYLilly@gmail.com.
