llinois is now the 14th state to pass a resolution calling on Congress to overturn Citizens United and one of only two states to call for an end to corporate personhood and state that money is not speech.  
The final votes were 37-9 in the Senate and 80-36 in the House, with both being bipartisan votes. If you want to see how your state representative voted here's the link: http://ilga.gov/legislation/votehistory/98/house/09800SJ0027_05312013_024000.pdf.
