A few days ago, the document was introduced in the Illinois Senate in the state capital city Springfield. A special delegation, which included members of Bulgarian educational societies and organizations, representatives of Bulgarian businesses based in Chicago, as well as the sisters Antoinetta and Diana Stoykov, relatives of the creator of the computer John Atanasoff, were present at the presentation of the document.
