A local lawmaker says she will make sure the concerns of Springfield’s law enforcement community are heard at the Statehouse.
Democratic state representative Sue Scherer met last week with Sheriff Neil Williamson and Springfield police chief Robert Williams. She says they discussed issues ranging from school safety to reducing violence on Springfield’s east side.
In a recorded statement after the meeting, Scherer did not commit to any specific ideas… except to repeat her support for passage of a concealed carry law for lllinois.
