Joyce, Hurley: Getting Things Done for First Responders
Sen. Patrick Joyce’s and Rep. Fran Hurley’s measure to give taxpayers more opportunities to provide support and resources to first responders was signed into law recently.
“First responders put their lives on the line for our community, and we should have an easier option to give back,” noted Joyce.
House Bill 4161 aims to increase donations to the 100 Club of Illinois by making a convenient donation option on individual state income tax returns. The 100 Club of Illinois is a nonprofit that provides resources, financial support, training, and moral support to both the families of first responders killed in the line of duty and active duty first responders. All sworn federal, state, county, and local first responders stationed in Illinois are included.
“I will continue to fight for legislation that benefits first responders and their families,” said Hurley, of Chicago.
Similar fund donation options on state individual tax returns include Wildlife Preservation, Diabetes Research, Hunger Relief, among others.
“The 100 Club of Illinois has been serving the first responder community for more than 55 years. We are grateful for the opportunity to further promote the mission of the Club,” said 100 Club of Illinois CEO Caitlyn Brennan. “Funds brought in through this program will assist the club in providing support to the families of our fallen heroes and the larger first responder community of Illinois.”
House Bill 4161 takes effect immediately. The 100 Club of Illinois Fund checkoff will be available beginning next year.
