Illinois State House District 51 issued the following announcement on July 19
Following a productive legislative session this past spring that included implementing a balanced and bipartisan state budget, state Rep. Mary Edly-Allen, D-Libertyville, is focused on connecting with constituents in her district by hosting several coffees through the month. Edly-Allen’s next coffee with constituents will be held Thursday, Aug. 1 from 10 a.m. to 11 a.m. at the Deer Park Panera, located at 20530 Rand Rd, Suite 4480.
