Older Illinoisians like Sandy have earned their Social Security through a lifetime of hard work. That’s why we’re urging Congress to protect and strengthen Social Security for years to come. spr.ly/6015NdJQP #WeEarnedIt

Older adults lose more to crypto scams than any group. In 2024, $1.18B was stolen from people 60+. SB 2319 would protect Illinoisans with crypto ATM rules. Tell your senator: Vote YES. spr.ly/6015NcMLN

Illinois legislators: Older adults are being scammed at crypto ATMs. In 2024, $1.18 billion was stolen from people 60 and older. The Digital Asset Kiosk Act (SB 2319) provides commonsense protections with registration, limits, and transparency. Vote YES. Protect your constituents

In 2024, scammers stole $1.18B from people 60+. Now, with the Digital Asset Kiosk Act (SB 2319) passed, crypto ATMs must follow commonsense rules to protect consumers. Big thanks to our team, Senator Laura Ellman, Rep. Curtis J. Tarver, II and IDFPR for making this happen!
