“Bike paths provide a safe public space for residents, families and visitors to be physically active and enjoy the outdoors,” Glowiak Hilton said. “This major investment will allow residents to enjoy even more opportunities for safe transportation and recreation, as well as attract visitors to our area.”

The notable project in the 24th District includes $198,000 to build a pedestrian overpass above Route 83 in Elmhurst.

“Reading encourages children to develop a lifelong interest in books, maintain literacy skills and stay connected with local libraries,” Glowiak Hilton said. “Reading is a great way to keep young minds active through the summer months, and I’m excited to incentivize students to stay engaged with learning opportunities.”

Studies indicate that 2 months of reading skills and 2 ½ months of math skills are lost over a single summer.

The Summer Book Club requires students to read eight books of their choice during the summer break, record the names of the books and return the form to Glowiak Hilton’s office by Aug. 11. Everyone who completes the summer reading club will be invited to an ice cream social with Sen. Glowiak Hilton.

To receive a book club form, visit www.SenatorSuzyGlowiak.com to download and print the form. Parents can also call her office at 630-785-3177 to request a copy by mail. Glowiak Hilton urges residents to call her office with any additional questions.

Glowiak Hilton moves to rename bridge in memory of Brooks Tonn

051720210002SPRINGFIELD – To memorialize a remarkable child’s life after his battle with cancer, State Senator Suzy Glowiak Hilton (D-Western Springs) advanced a resolution through the Senate to rename 47th Street Bridge over Interstate 294 in Hinsdale after Brooks Tonn.

“Throughout his battle, Brooks was an inspiration to all who knew him by responding with positivity and resilience,” Glowiak Hilton. “With this prominent bridge dedication, his memory will be permanently celebrated in the Hinsdale community and serve as a reminder to all of his courage.”

For the last three and a half years, the bridge’s fence has been decorated with plastic cups spelling out “Brooks Strong.” Community members first decorated the bridge to show support for the Tonn family during Brooks’s fight against a rare childhood cancer, to which he succumbed in 2017, when he was only 10 years old.

To honor his generous spirit, the Tonn family created the Brooks Strong Foundation, which provides funding for pediatric cancer research and gives scholarships to children undergoing cancer treatment to cover the cost of sports or other activities.

House Joint Resolution 13 was adopted by the Senate Tuesday with unanimous support.

GlowiakHilton Shred EventOAKBROOK TERRACE – To ensure residents have a safe option for shredding documents containing personal information, State Senator Suzy Glowiak Hilton (D-Western Springs) and State Rep. Terra Costa Howard (D-Glen Ellyn) are hosting an event in Lombard offering free, secure shredding services.

Shredding trucks will be available at Lombard Village Hall, located at 255 E. Wilson Ave., from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. or until the trucks are full on Saturday, June 12. A limit of three boxes of documents per car will be encouraged.

“A great way to protect yourself and your family from identity fraud is to securely destroy vulnerable documents,” Glowiak Hilton said. “Take advantage of this free community event by utilizing shredding equipment to safely dispose of documents with personal information, which can protect you, your loved ones or your business against fraud.”

Examples of documents with personally identifiable information that should be safely discarded include bank statements, outdated medical records, tax returns, utility bills, junk mail, credit card applications and receipts.

"Many of us have old documents with personal information piling up at home, and this event is an opportunity for residents to safely and conveniently dispose of them,” Costa Howard said. “Shredding documents is a simple way to prevent identity theft as you’re getting rid of paperwork you no longer need.”

For more information, call Glowiak Hilton’s office at 630-785-3177.

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
