LGBTQ+ Equality

All Illinoisans deserve to be treated with respect and dignity and are entitled to be treated equally under the law. Ann has and will continue push to ensure our laws reflect these values and ideals.

Gun Violence Prevention

Ann has worked collaboratively with officials at all levels of government on gun violence prevention, including passing an assault weapons ban for the first time in Illinois’ history. She has also worked to increase the use of technology for law enforcement and pushed for additional resources for violence prevention.

Ethics and Accountability

Ann led the charge to bring a new era in leadership to the Illinois House for the first time in decades, electing a new Speaker of the House, voting to enact term limits for legislative leaders and passing comprehensive and common-sense ethics legislation.
