As a former instructor at SIU-E, education has been a top priority for Stuart during her time in Springfield. Stuart will return to Springfield next week for the beginning of the spring legislative session.

“As I explained to the students, there is a long process a bill has to go through before it becomes a law, but I ask the folks that I represent to share any new law ideas that they have,” continued Stuart. “As state Representative I will continue to fight to help improve life for the families of the Metro East.”
