U.S. Senators Tammy Duckworth and Dick Durbin hope to have a vote in the Senate soon.

Illinois U.S. Senators Tammy Duckworth and Dick Durbin recently re-introduced the legislation, and said they hope to have a vote in the Senate soon. The Senate Committee on Energy and Natural Resources held a hearing Wednesday on the proposal to grant the church national monument status, as well as the 1908 Springfield Race Riot National Monument Act, which similarly would create a national monument in the capital city of Illinois, where a race riot broke out in 1908 after two Black men were arrested and accused of crimes against two white women and one of their fathers.
