Oh Baby!
Can't believe that I didn't even realize that this had been signed by the Governor. It just goes to show what can be done when people are willing to work together. Or at least try. Back in March, the Sun-Times did a good piece on the backdrop of the Born-Alive bill. It's a little hard to read the pdf, but you can get the idea of what went down.
Kudos to my friend Rep. Brandon Phelps and everybody else that helped reach this historic outcome.

John,
Congratulations on this bill. This shows what great things can happen when real leaders put aside partisan differences to work together to do the right thing...and manage to keep the whackos on the sidelines.
This legislation would not have become law without your efforts.
John... I hope you aren't going to link the Illinois Leader as a credible source of information too much. Just giving you a hard time.
