    U.S. Congress, 15th District. Panelists will respond to questions from
    the Sierra Club and from the audience. The panel will include Naomi

    District, Illinois State House Representative; Bill Black (incumbent, R),
    candidate for 104th District, Illinois State House Representative; and 
    Phil Bloomer (representing Tim Johnson, incumbent, R) and Steve Cox (D), 
    candidates for Illinois 15th District, U. S. Congress. In addition,
