LCPL HOLLIS MEMORIAL HWY

This is a commemorative resolution (not a substantive bill) designating a specific stretch of Route 16 in Gillespie, Illinois (from Route 4 to Kelly Street) as the "LCpl Thomas W. Hollis Memorial Highway" in honor of a Marine who died in Vietnam in 1968. The resolution requests the Illinois Department of Transportation to install appropriate signs or plaques along this highway segment and directs copies to Hollis's family, the Gillespie mayor, and the transportation secretary. It does not create new laws or policies, but formally recognizes a fallen service member through highway naming. The bill was filed on January 28, 2025, and referred to committee.
