Ex-state Rep. Mulligan recalled as fearless advocate for women, gays, disabled | |
January 01, 2015 Longtime suburban state Rep. Rosemary Mulligan, a straight-talking, trailblazing Republican legislator who championed the rights of women, gays and people with disabilities, died Tuesday. She was 73. "It's a real loss for the people of Illinois," friend Terry Cosgrove said. "She got so much done with so little -- no personal money and little pay. All she had was her commitment to work as hard as she could." Source: http://www.dailyherald.com/article/20141231/news/141239747/ |
