  • 117Th Illinois Congressional Delegation
    ILLINOIS CONGRESSIONAL DELEGATION 117th Congress Two Senators represent each state in the U.S. Senate and are elected to serve six-year terms. U.S. Senator Dick Durbin (D) of Springfield was elected to represent Illinois for a fifth term in 2020. Tammy Duckworth of Hoffman Estates (D) was elected to the U.S. Senate in 2016. (See pages 16-19 for U.S. Senator photos and biographies.) In the November 2020 general election, Illinois voters elected 18 candidates to serve in the U.S. House of Representatives for two-year terms. Thirteen Democratic and five Republican U.S. Representatives were elected to serve in the 117th Congress. The November 2020 general election was historical, with the most women ever elect- ed to serve in Congress. Democrat Marie Newman and Republican Mary Miller — repre- senting districts that were previously held by men — added to the increase of female Representatives. Newman definitively won the general election to represent the 13th District after defeating 16-year incumbent U.S. Rep. Dan Lipinksi (D) in the March pri- mary. Miller won the 15th District seat that was previously held by U.S. Rep. John Shimkus (R), who served 12 terms in Congress and opted not to run for reelection. Since 1818, Illinois has had a total of 20 female U.S. Representatives. In 2021, seven are currently rep- resenting our state — a record-breaking total. The 117th Congress serves from Jan. 3, 2021, to Jan. 3, 2023. A view of the U.S. Capitol in Washington, D.C. 36 | 2021-2022 ILLINOIS BLUE BOOK 1st Congressional District BOBBY L.

Pritzker to possibly withhold federal aid provided through the State of Illinois from any local government that reopens its economy in accordance with federal health guidelines but ahead of Governor Pritzker’s own arbitrary timetable. Both Congress and President Trump’s Administration have taken extraordinary measures to address the COVID-19 pandemic through four pieces of legislation. The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act provided nearly $4.9 billion in funding for the State of Illinois—providing support to our frontline health care workers and direct relief to workers and families, expanding unemployment benefits, and bolstering small business with financial assistance. The U.S. Treasury and the Small Business Administration approved over 160,000 Paycheck Protection Program forgivable loans to date, totaling over $23 billion for Illinois small businesses and placing Illinois in the top five states for loan approval. On top of that, the Trump Administration and the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) have delivered over 6.3 million pairs of surgical gloves, over 1.5 million surgical masks, over 3.4 million N95 respirators, and over 500,000 face shields for health care workers.

  • Nrcc Illinois Primary Memo To
    NRCC ILLINOIS PRIMARY MEMO TO: INTERESTED PARTIES FROM: NRCC POLITICAL AND NRCC COMMUNICATIONS DATE: FEBRUARY 3, 2010 SUBJECT: ILLINOIS PRIMARY RESULTS The road to putting an end to the Democrats’ reckless agenda began tonight in President Obama’s own backyard. The results of the Congressional primaries in Illinois prove that Republicans are not only poised to successfully defend all of the GOP-held districts in the Land of Lincoln, but we are prepared to run highly aggressive campaigns in several suburban Chicago districts currently held by vulnerable Democrats. With an unacceptably high unemployment rate, a skyrocketing deficit and an out-of-touch agenda, Democrats are on the defensive, and Republicans are well positioned to pick up seats in November. Open Seats: IL-10 (Rep. Mark Kirk, R) Outgoing Rep. Mark Kirk has consistently beaten back Democratic challengers despite this district’s overall Democratic bent, and Robert Dold is in a strong position to repeat Kirk’s success on Election Day. A small business owner, Robert Dold started this race as an outsider, and quickly proved himself as a political force to be reckoned with. As a third-generation native of the Chicago suburbs, Dold brings with him a background in both business and public policy, having served as the investigative counsel for the House Government Reform and Oversight Committee. As the Republican nominee for the suburban Chicago district, Dold is well positioned to carry on the Kirk tradition of being an independent voice for the hardworking families of suburban Chicago. Dold defeated state Rep. Beth Coulson, entrepreneur Dick Green, Arie Friedman and Paul Hamann for the Republican nomination.

  • Number of People with Pre-Existing Conditions in Illinois, By
    People with Pre-Existing Conditions in Illinois, by Congressional District Prior to the Affordable Care Act (ACA), insurers could discriminate against consumers based on their current health conditions and medical history. Consumers with common ailments, including asthma and high blood pressure, were charged higher rates. People with histories of serious conditions, such as cancer or heart attacks, were regularly denied coverage altogether. The ACA changed all of that. Now, Republicans in Congress & the Trump Administration are discussing a provision that is effectively a “sick tax” on premiums: People with health conditions (5.5 million in Illinois) could be charged more based on their medical history, paying above-standard rates for coverage. Even if the new plan preserved the ACA’s rules on guaranteed issue—meaning that issuers cannot deny coverage—consumers with pre-existing conditions could still be priced out of the market. Medical history should not be a barrier to affordable coverage.

  • July 1, 2021 the Honorable Kurt Schrader the Honorable Adam
    July 1, 2021 The Honorable Kurt Schrader The Honorable Adam Kinzinger U.S. House of Representatives U.S. House of Representatives 2431 Rayburn House Office Building 2245 Rayburn House Office Building Washington, D.C. 20515 Washington, D.C. 20515 Dear Congressman Schrader and Congressman Kinzinger: On behalf of the millions of patients, consumers, providers, communities of color, and taxpayers our organizations represent, we write to thank you for your leadership in introducing the BIOSIM Act (H.R. 2815). Biosimilar medicines hold enormous potential to lower the cost of prescription drugs but face significant barriers to adoption. Congressional action on innovative solutions, like the BIOSIM Act, is critical to reducing costs and improving patient access to biosimilars in the U.S. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved 29 biosimilar medicines since 2015.i Patients with cancer, chronic kidney disease, rheumatoid arthritis and other conditions are benefitting from access to biosimilars. According to a recent analysis, women, seniors, and low-income individuals are expected to benefit most from increased access to biosimilars as they are predominantly impacted by the conditions currently treated by higher cost biologics for which biosimilar competition can reduce costs.ii However, despite average cost savings of 30 percent, biosimilar adoption continues to trail expectations.iii Efforts to increase awareness and educate patients and providers about the availability and benefits of biosimilar medicines are important.iv But misaligned financial incentives within the Medicare program continue to encourage the use of high-cost brand biologics even when a lower-cost biosimilar medicine is available. Recent analysis shows how Medicare reimbursement can influence biosimilar adoption and suggests how payment proposals could be modified to create incentives to spur adoption.v We are deeply appreciative of your thoughtful approach to generating targeted savings for Medicare and reducing out-of-pocket costs for seniors.
