On
Monday evening, an open house hosted by Senator Sally
Turner also drew people to stop by the newly opened
offices of the Central Illinois Veteran's Commission,
located across the hall from Turner.
Among the visitors who did stop in was Logan County
Circuit Judge Jonathan Wright.
LDN spent time with staff in Turner's office and with
Joe Schaler in the CIVC and will have additional
