|
| 2 |
| WHEREAS, It has come to our attention that, with the |
| 3 |
| growing number of Illinois residents being sent overseas for |
| 4 |
| active military duty, there is a need for a central location |
| 5 |
| for military families to give and exchange information and |
| 6 |
| support; and
|
| 7 |
| WHEREAS, Military moms have asked the General Assembly to |
| 8 |
| create a web site for military families to post contact |
| 9 |
| information, events and activities, and other support tools for |
| 10 |
| families with loved ones on active duty; and
|
| 11 |
| WHEREAS, The Illinois Department of Veterans Affairs has a |
| 12 |
| web site with resources for veterans and their dependents and |
| 13 |
| survivors; therefore, be it
|
| 14 |
| RESOLVED, BY THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES OF THE |
| 15 |
| NINETY-FOURTH GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS, that |
| 16 |
| we recommend that the Department of Veterans Affairs add a link |
| 17 |
| on its website that will provide a medium for military families |
| 18 |
| to communicate with each other; and be it further
|
| 19 |
| RESOLVED, That a suitable copy of this resolution be |
| 20 |
