Terry Link is a Democratic member of the Illinois Senate, representing the 30th District since 1997 and is currently running for the office of Lt. Governor of Illinois.

Link was born in Waukegan, Illinois and has remained a lifelong resident of Lake County. He has four daughters and two grandchildren. He attended North Chicago High School before going on to Stout State University (now University of Wisconsin � Stout).

Prior to entering the Senate, Link was a partner in Major Industrial Trucking, a Lake County industrial equipment business. Link also worked at Johnson Controls in the governmental affairs division. He his career in government began with the State Treasurer’s office and the Secretary of State’s office.

In 2009, Sen. Link raised controversy by proposing a law that would allow the use of stationary cameras to issue tickets to vehicles exceeding the speed limit, a move some consider an intrusive attempt to increase revenue while eroding privacy, while others see it as a legitimate means to reduce speed-related accidents.

Also in 2009, Link announced his decision to run for the office of Lt. Governor of Illinois, a position once held by Pat Quinn.
