The new Illinois State Capitol is where President Obama served three terms in the Illinois Senate. The building is the tallest non-skyscraper state capitol in the country, taller than the U.S. Capitol and the highest point in the city of Springfield. The centerpiece of the Statehouse is the stained glass dome which depicts an arcane version of the State Seal of Illinois. Here, the phrase “State Sovereignty” is placed above “National Union.” This is opposite of what now appears on the state seal.
