OAKBROOK TERRACE — Over $39 million in funding is coming to the 23rd Senate District to build and repair infrastructure, thanks to strong support from State Senator Suzy Glowiak Hilton.

“Key investments in our infrastructure will help our communities continue to grow and increase accessibility for residents,” said Glowiak Hilton (D-Western Springs). “We have to make sure our roads and bridges are safe, reliable and easy to travel.”

The largest multi-year program to build and repair infrastructure in state history will invest $50.6 billion over six years, continuing an unprecedented investment in safety, mobility and quality of life made possible by the bipartisan Rebuild Illinois capital program. The Illinois Department of Transportation’s new multi-year program is both comprehensive and multimodal, with investments in roads and bridges, aviation, transit, freight and passenger rail, waterways, and bicycle and pedestrian accommodations touching every Illinois county.

As part of IDOT’s latest Multi-Year Plan under Rebuild Illinois, the district Glowiak Hilton represents will see infrastructure projects totaling more than $39 million next year.

A full list of projects in the 23rd District can be found here.

“Women deserve to know all of their options when making informed decisions about their future,” said Glowiak Hilton (D-Western Springs). “This law equips them with science-backed fertility information so they can plan with confidence.”

According to The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, the ability for a woman to get pregnant starts to decline at age 30. To assess a woman’s likelihood of getting pregnant on their own, health care providers can use ovarian reserve testing — a blood test and ultrasound — to estimate the number of healthy eggs in a woman’s ovaries.
