Maggie Crotty is a Democratic member of the Illinois Senate, representing the 19th district since 2002. She is Chairperson of the Local Government Committee, Vice-Chairperson of the Human Services Committee, and a member of the Committees for Higher Education, and Housing and Community Affairs.

Crotty's legislative priorities include health issues and education. She has passed legislation to expand state reading assistance grants to grades 7 through 12. Another legislative goal is to increase the state reimbursement rate to school districts for providing special education. She was a co-sponsor of a Bill to create a state administered prescription drug discount buying group for seniors. Beginning in January 2004, seniors were able to save up to 50% on the cost of prescription drugs.

Crotty served three terms as an Illinois State Representative, first elected in 1996. Prior to joining the Illinois General Assembly, she worked for the Southwest Cook County Cooperative for Special Education.
