Illinois Historic Preservation Legislative Caucus
Bipartisan House & Senate
Support
The Illinois Historic Preservation Legislative
Caucus, since its formation in late 2005, has had several meetings and
gatherings and has over 80 members.
With over 80 members from both the House and Senate – almost half of the
Legislature - the Illinois Historic Preservation Caucus is the largest
issue-based, bi-partisan caucus in Springfield. It was the second
historic preservation caucus to be formed at the state legislative level
in the country after the state of Washington (1989). In 2006, Hawaii
established a cultural heritage caucus.
