Parents in Illinois are expressing concerns over recent legislative efforts that they believe could impact their rights to homeschool their children. Representative Joe Sosnowski has taken a stand against what he describes as "intrusive mandates and punitive measures" aimed at families who choose homeschooling.

Sosnowski is urging residents to voice their opposition by signing a petition. The goal is to communicate to lawmakers in Springfield the importance of preserving parental choice in education without additional governmental intervention.

The initiative highlights the ongoing debate over educational control and parental rights, with many advocating for minimal state interference in homeschooling decisions.
