During the meeting, Durbin and UCCI members spoke about the importance of a robust surface transportation reauthorization to ensure that Illinois transportation projects funded by the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act can continue. “Our government is at its best when our local, state, and federal officials are working together. I hosted county officials from across Illinois for a conversation about how our federal government can support counties in achieving our shared goals,” Durbin said. Photos of the meeting is available here. Counties with representatives at the meeting include: Bond County Boone County Bureau County Calhoun County Champaign County Henry County Iroquois County Jackson County Jasper County Jefferson County Kane County Kankakee County Kendall County Lee County Livingston County Logan County Madison County Ogle County Peoria County Saline County Stephenson County Will County Williamson County -30- 1 2026-09-17T09:52:05Z 2026-09-17T09:53:00Z
