The state flag has remained basically the same since it was first adopted in 1915. Its only change in 1969 was an addition of the word “Illinois” underneath an eagle standing on a rock with a shield beneath its feet.
Coincidentally, on the way to work near the IL river passed a field where a fully grown bald eagle had caught I think a groundhog. The eagle was enormous and majestic – fierce looking creature, not to be messed with.

Serious suggestion: use the colors blue and orange and/or some reference to Lincoln
Snarky/cynical suggestion: symbolize our state’s three top industries with a marijuana leaf (cannabis), a slot machine (gambling) and a fetus in a red circle/slash (abortion).

New flag created by Democrats will be a woke shit-show of virtue signal vomit
A largely unasked question is becoming glaring: Is Illinois doing all it should to use artificial intelligence to make government cost less and work better? So far, the evidence says no.
Bound to be a measure push for a WOKE, PC flag.
