A press release from Pam Althoff:
Althoff receives Illinois Chamber of Commerce “Champion of Free Enterprise” award
Springfield, IL… Supporting Illinois’ employers and pro-business legislation are some of State Senator Pamela Althoff’s (R-McHenry) top priorities, which have earned her the “Champion of Free Enterprise” award from the Illinois Chamber of Commerce.
In order to receive the award, a senator or representative must have received an average of 85 percent or better voting record over the previous two General Assemblies.
Voting records are based on a legislator’s votes on measures the Chamber deems important to the state’s business community.
Senator Althoff received an overall score of 87% (93% for the 99th General Assembly and 80% for the 100th General Assembly), making her eligible to receive the award.
“Helping businesses thrive is a key component of a flourishing economy,” said Althoff.
“As legislators, supporting pro-business legislation is one of the most important things we can do to create an environment where businesses want to come and stay. I am honored to be recognized by the Chamber, and thank them in return for their efforts in creating a positive business climate here in Illinois.”

She didn’t have the decency to just step aside so now we’re stuck with her on the county board for four years.
Expect her to run for County Board Chairman in two years.
She also got this award for her wonderful years taking up space in Springpatch!
I wonder why she didn’t issue another press release about this one!
