SPRINGFIELD – Come Jan. 1, a law brought by State Senator Laura Ellman will strengthen consumer protections by stopping out-of-state tech companies from misleading residents by advertising themselves as banks when they are not properly regulated or insured.

“When people hear the word ‘bank,’ they assume their money is safe and trust that their deposits are protected,” said Ellman (D-Naperville). “This law ensures companies can’t play fast and loose with that trust just to grow their customer base.”

SPRINGFIELD – Park districts and counties will have greater access to state grants for shoreline restoration and protection starting Jan. 1, helping communities address costly environmental damage while easing pressure on local municipalities, under a law led by State Senator Laura Ellman.

“People often don’t realize how expensive shoreline damage can be until it turns into an emergency,” said Ellman (D- Naperville). “This gives communities a way to fix problems early, before those hidden costs fall on homeowners.”

SPRINGFIELD – In the new year, Illinois will have a more reliable and transparent funding source for the Department of Natural Resources’ Office of Water Resources and the critical work it does across the state thanks to State Senator Laura Ellman.

“This is about making sure our water dollars are doing what people expect them to do: protect our rivers, lakes and communities,” said Ellman (D-Naperville). “Clean water is a shared value, and this gives us the tools and funding to actually back that up.”
