Illinois State Representative Kevin Schmidt is inviting veterans from the 114th District to join his Veterans’ Advisory Council. The initiative aims to address challenges faced by veterans and their families in Illinois.

Schmidt said, “I want to hear about challenges and issues that impact our veterans and their families so we can work together to improve services here in Illinois.”

The council’s meetings are intended to provide Schmidt with a better understanding of how policy changes could benefit veterans and enhance their quality of life. Interested individuals are encouraged to contact Schmidt’s office through his website at repschmidt.com/contact/.

Schmidt also highlighted that the State of Illinois provides various programs and resources for veterans and their families, covering federal, state, and local services. He advised those unable to find specific information to call his office at (618)-215-1050 for assistance.

Schmidt, a Republican, was elected in 2023 to represent the 114th House District, succeeding LaToya Greenwood.
