Simmons works for full inclusion by eliminating use of “alien” in reference to people – Press Release

"Senate Bill 3865 would remove the use of 'alien' in any Illinois statute when referring to people who have mixed statuses and referring to commerce outside of Illinois and the country.  Eliminating references to 'alien' in Illinois law would remove a regressive and outdated legal term and symbolize the full inclusion of immigrant communities in Illinois. Similar legislation has recently passed in California and Colorado."
