Rep. Kelly Burke, D-Evergreen Park, answers questions about vote-by-mail legislation during the spring legislative session last month. The Illinois House of Representatives conducted its spring session at the Bank of Springfield Center in Springfield instead of in its chamber in the Illinois Capitol building a few blocks away because it affords more space to practice social distancing amid the COVID-19 pandemic. Gov. JB Pritzker signed the vote-by-mail measure Tuesday.
