SPRINGFIELD – Building on Illinois’ existing protections for sexual assault survivors, a new law co-sponsored by State Senator Napoleon Harris III strengthens how hospitals provide care in the aftermath of an assault — ensuring survivors receive the timely treatment and support they need.

SPRINGFIELD – A new law supported by State Senator Napoleon Harris III will make it easier for law enforcement to remove criminal trespassers from a person’s home.
“If someone breaks into your home when you go out of town, they shouldn’t have the same rights as someone who rents a room in your house,” said Harris (D-Harvey). “This will make it easier for the police to remove squatters from a residence.”

SPRINGFIELD – To ensure working mothers who nurse their infants don’t have to choose between earning an income or providing for their baby, State Senator Napoleon Harris III supported a newly signed law granting paid break time for pumping breast milk.
