CHANGE Illinois is a coalition leading systemic political and government reform. CHANGE (the Coalition for Honest and New Government Ethics) includes a diverse group of civic, business, labor, professional, non-profit, and philanthropic organizations that represent more than 2 million members.The coalition addresses issues that undermine our democracy, including ballot access, competitive elections, increased citizen participation, government transparency, unethical lobbying, and redistricting.CHANGE launched in February 2009 as an informal, broad-based coalition intent on changing Illinois' culture of corruption. Our initiative resulted in the state's first-ever law limiting campaign contributions. Since then, CHANGE has matured into a stand-alone, non-partisan organization that amplifies the efforts of our coalition members and brings more innovative ideas into the reform movement.Through public education, coalition building, and policy development efforts, CHANGE engages Illinois residents in creating a government more transparent, accountable, and responsive to their needs.
