Penicillium! In 2021, I spearheaded a measure to make this the official state microbe. Now, it's a question on last night's Jeopardy!

Our team is currently moving to a new office in Peoria Heights! Due to the move, our Peoria area office number will be unavailable for the next few days. For any questions or concerns over the phone, please reach out to my Springfield office or Bloomington-Normal office phone numbers, which can be found under contact info on my website.

State Senator Dave Koehler is pleased to introduce his new constituent service coordinator in his district office, Joshua Crockett.

Joshua Crockett earned his B.S. in Political Science with a minor in Civic Engagement and Responsibility from Illinois State University in May of 2021 and is currently pursuing a master’s in communication. During his time at ISU, Joshua worked at the Center for Civic Engagement as a Census & Election Fellow to encourage student participation in 2020, followed by his time as the Graduate Assistant for Civic Education and Political Engagement.

Prior to his time at ISU, Joshua attended Heartland Community College where he served as Student Trustee and later secured a position on the Board of Trustees. He is thrilled to continue supporting the Bloomington-Normal community through my district office.
