Biography
Kevin Joyce, a lifetime resident of the Southwest Community, is in his fourth term as State Representative of the 35th District. His work at home and in Springfield is a continuation of seventeen years of civic and community involvement.
Kevin’s priorities are improving the quality of our children’s education, ensuring our seniors have access to affordable prescription drugs, and keeping our neighborhoods safe so that parents can raise their children in a nurturing environment.
As your State Representative, Kevin authored the Truth-In-Tuition law which freezes college tuition at a public university at the student’s freshman year level. Kevin was instrumental in the installation of new and safer train crossing gates in Evergreen Park, Chicago and Blue Island that end the need for trains to blow their whistles. He was also one of the main advocates in the struggle to create Illinois Rx Senior Prescription Drug Program.
Kevin has served on the Board of Directors of both the Illinois Crime Commission and the Keep Chicago Beautiful Environmental Foundation. He is also an active member of the Beverly Area Planning Association and Mount Greenwood Local Redevelopment Corporation.
Kevin and his wife Krista, are the proud parents of Cameron, Kalia, Jessica, Michael, and Kristen. The Joyce family lives on Chicago’s southwest side and are active members of St. Cajetan Roman Catholic Church. Kevin is also a football coach at St. Xavier University.
