Senator Laura Fine has represented Illinois’ 9th District in the State Senate since 2018, following six years serving as the State Representative for the 17th District. The 9th District includes communities across Chicago’s northern suburbs. Senator Fine currently chairs the Illinois Senate Behavioral and Mental Health Committee, and her legislative work has included consumer protection, health care, mental health services, insurance coverage, environmental issues, and advocacy for young adults and people with disabilities.
