THE ILLINOIS CONSTITUTION – A POCKET GUIDE FOR ALL CITIZENS 

This a perfect introduction to our most important state document. The Illinois Constitution – A Pocket Guide for All Citizens is a low-cost, straightforward guide giving the original text and overview of the framework of state government. The guide is 4" x 6" and allows easy storage in your pocket, briefcase, or backpack. This full-color book includes an overview and exact wording of the Illinois Constitution of 1970 (Illinois currently operates under) and an easy-to-find index of specific topics. In addition, it contains a vocabulary of constitutional terms and a listing of Illinois state symbols.

The Illinois Constitution has several vital functions. 

1. Guarantees the rights and liberties of the citizens of Illinois. Each of the 50 state constitutions and the United States Constitution includes a bill of rights or declaration of rights. 

2. Establishes the framework or structure of government. It follows the classic pattern of separation of powers between the three branches of government: legislative, executive, and judicial. 

3. State government addresses all areas not explicitly delegated to the federal government, making a state constitution more detailed than the United States Constitution. Accordingly, the Illinois Constitution, like most state constitutions, sets forth fundamental policy on various additional subjects, such as finance, revenue, and education.

Please review the table of contents, and you will see that this 64-page pocket (or phone-sized) guide is packed with valuable information for all citizens.
