Today, LITE Strategies honors the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr...

Dr. King challenged our nation to move beyond words and toward action to align our laws, institutions, and public investments with justice, dignity, and opportunity for all. His work reminds us that progress is not accidental; it is the result of intentional advocacy, courageous leadership, and sustained commitment.

On this Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, we recommit to the work of building systems that are more just, more inclusive, and more responsive because justice delayed is justice denied.

Grateful to see years of negotiation and collaboration result in legislation centered on affordability, grid reliability, energy storage, and workforce development.

Thank you to Governor JB Pritzker and Deputy Governor Bria Scudder for their leadership on Illinois energy policy; to Senator Steve Stadelman for his leadership as Chair of Energy & Public Utilities; and to my local legislators Rep. Dave Vella and Rep. State Representative Maurice West for voting in favor of this important legislation.

It was a privilege to work alongside the Coalition for Community Solar Access, the Joint Equity Eligible Contractors, Climate Jobs Illinois (Joe Duffy), the Illinois Clean Jobs Coalition (Kady McFadden), Vote Solar, Illinois Environmental Council (Jennifer Walling), Taylor Uhe LLC and so many others to get this important legislation passed for Illinois.
