Dear Illinoisans,
It's time to speak out for your right to repair
Right to Repair is now law in five states. Illinois residents should be have the same options to fix their stuff without going out of state for help.
The Illinois General Assembly can pass Right to Repair in 2025 with your help. SB0122 and HB2549 cover common products such as cell phones, computers and home appliances. HB1909 does the same for agricultural equipment.
Your voice of support is powerful. Tell your reps and senator you want your right to repair and why.

What does Right to Repair do?
Right to Repair is simple. It requires manufacturers to provide owners and independent repair businesses with fair access to service information and affordable replacement parts. So you can fix the stuff you own quickly—and get back on with your life.
That sounds great! Who would be against that?
Well, manufacturers like John Deere and Apple don’t like the idea. When your tractor breaks or your cell phone stops working, they want to be the only people who can fix it. And they get to set whatever prices they want for parts and service.
Is Right to Repair a new concept?
Nope! We already have right to repair for cars—that’s why you can take your Ford into a local mechanic. They have all the same software diagnostics and service manuals that the dealerships have. This is the result of decades of auto Right to Repair legislation—laws that have been a resounding success.
How can I get involved?
It’s time to fight for your right to repair and defend local repair jobs—the corner mom-and-pop repair shops that keep getting squeezed out. Write or call your legislator. Tell them you support the Fair Repair Act. Tell them that you believe repair should be fair, affordable, and accessible. Stand up for your right to repair in Illinois!
