HOLOCAUST MUSEUM: New genocide commission becomes law

July 19, 2010

When it came time for Gov. Pat Quinn to sign legislation creating a new statewide commission on genocide, he knew just where he wanted to make the law official.

Quinn Thursday came to the Illinois Holocaust Museum & Education Center in Skokie, flanked by several state legislators as well as genocide survivors and activists as signed the law. In the open upstairs room of the Skokie facility, an invited crowd broke into applause at the signing.
