Springfield , IL - The Illinois Retired Teachers Association (IRTA) is pleased to announce the endorsement of Representative Jil Tracy for the fall 2008 General Election. Tracy was awarded the endorsement following a rigorous examination process in which candidates were evaluated upon the content of the responses found in their returned questionnaire, their past legislative record on issues of importance to the retired educator, and also by the input of the local units located within their districts.

It is the intention of the Illinois Retired Teachers Association to provide Illinois lawmakers with a measure of appreciation for their past support for the interest of the retired educator. The IRTA wishes Rep. Tracy the best of luck in future pursuits, and looks forward to working with her in the future.

The Illinois Retired Teachers Association is a not-for-profit, non-partisan organization of retired educators. The Association serves the needs and interests of its 32,000 members through advocacy, education, cooperation and socialization in a flexible organizational structure.
