Bill > HB2481

This bill appropriates $250,000 from the General Revenue Fund (the state's main operating fund) to the Chicago & Cook County Building & Construction Trades Council specifically to support the Tradeswomen Build Nations 2025 conference. The bill will become effective on July 1, 2025, and allows for the full amount to be used or a portion of the $250,000 as needed for the conference. The Tradeswomen Build Nations conference is likely an event focused on supporting and promoting women working in the construction and building trades, an industry traditionally dominated by men, with the goal of highlighting the contributions and challenges of women in these professions.
