Dear Friends,

Thank you for visiting my legislative website. It is my honor to serve the citizens of the 36th Senate District in the Illinois General Assembly. On this website, you can learn a little bit about me, my record in the General Assembly, and the services I can provide you.

Right now, my top priorities are bringing more jobs to to our area, increasing economic development in the region, finding a responsible budget solution, and putting an end to business as usual in Springfield. I am most proud of the projects that have come to the 36th District including the expansions of Western Illinois University, the Northeast Sports Complex in East Moline, and the expansion of Douglas Park in the City of Rock Island.

I always welcome feedback from my constituents, so if you have any questions, concerns, or ideas, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Sincerely,

Mike Jacobs
36th Legislative District

Jacobs bill makes the Rock River Trail a Scenic Historic Site

Friday, 24 May 2013 11:41

Jacobs-RockRiver Senator Mike Jacobs (D-Moline) recently passed a legislation that will designate the Rock River Trail a state historic site.

“These construction projects will also ensure the safety of our local roads and bridges,” Jacobs said.

House Joint Resolution 8 establishes the Rock River Trail Scenic Historic Route. The resolution requires units of local government to maintain the Route, and the Illinois Historic Preservation Agency and Illinois Office of Tourism to post the Rock River Trail Scenic and Historic Route’s location on their agency websites.

IDOT Road construction plan includes 36th District

Jacobs IDOT Several years ago, the Senate passed legislation for a capital construction plan to help repair roads and bridges across the state. Senator Mike Jacobs (D-Moline) is happy to announce that the next phase in this plan covers projects in Rock Island, Henry and Whiteside counties.

“These construction projects will also ensure the safety of our local roads and bridges,” Jacobs said.

One of the highlights of this proposal is a new intercity passenger rail service that will run between Chicago and Moline. This project includes new stations in Geneseo and Moline at an estimated cost of $222 million. These infrastructure improvements will open up the Quad Cities to additional economic development and job creation opportunities.
