Sara Feigenholtz (born December 11, 1956) is a Democratic member of the Illinois Senate who has represented the 6th district since 2020. The district includes the lakefront Chicago neighborhoods of Lake View, Lincoln Park, and the Near North Side. From 1995 to 2020, she was a member of the Illinois House of Representatives representing the 12th district.
In late October 2024, Feigenholtz posted on X (formerly Twitter) in response to a comment about Islam, writing that those who praise the religion should "move to an Islamic country and stick their heads in the dirt multiple times a day for enlightenment." In November 2024, the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) and other groups called for her resignation. High school teacher Fuzia Jarad additionally alleged that Feigenholtz made anti-Muslim comments during a personal conversation, which Feigenholtz denied as "false and without merit." CAIR requested that Senate President Don Harmon remove Feigenholtz from committee leadership positions.
