CHAMPAIGN – As the COVID-19 crisis continues to unfold, many people continue to have a lot of questions. As a state senator, Scott Bennett (D-Champaign) strives to keep everyone updated with the most helpful and accurate information.

“As we continue to face these difficult and uncertain times, it is vitally important that residents stay informed and, even more importantly, that they get accurate information,” said Bennett. “Our Champaign and Danville offices are ready to answer questions and provide support in accessing state services.”
