DECATUR, IL… State Representative Regan Deering (R-Decatur) was named as a 2025 Prairie State Policy Champion by Americans for Prosperity- Illinois (AFP-IL). The award was given to legislators who lead the fight to rein in government spending, ease Illinois' state tax burden, protect homeschoolers, and empower educational choices.

"I am proud to be recognized as a 2025 Prairie State Policy Champion," said Rep. Deering. "I have been committed to making Illinois a better place for families and businesses. I will continue to fight against the Democrats' outrageous policies and keep advocating for affordable, common-sense legislation that does not compromise the rights of Illinoisans."

AFP-Illinois State Director Jason Heffley issued the following statement regarding Rep. Deering's work in the Illinois House of Representatives:

"Illinois needs more principled leaders like Rep. Deering in Springfield fighting for Illinois taxpayers and reining in out-of-control government spending. Rep. Deering has consistently prioritized fiscal responsibility over special interests, while also leading on AFP-supported legislation in the Capitol. Rep Deering is a conservative commonsense leader and AFP-Illinois will help educate her constituents on her dedication and service to the Land of Lincoln."
