2026 Recap - A Small but Mighty Day in Springfield

On March 25, 2026, ICEP leaders traveled to the Illinois State Capitol in Springfield for Advocacy Day. It was a small but mighty group, and the conversations were productive across every meeting. Change doesn’t happen overnight, but it starts with showing up: and ICEP showed up. By joining forces with ENA (Emergency Nurses Association) and meeting directly with key legislators, our team made meaningful progress on several critical bills. Key conversations are moving in the right direction, and we’ll keep members updated as things develop.
