U.S. Sen. Tammy Duckworth: Clean energy investments are a win-win-win – Rockford Register Star
"Far too often, disadvantaged communities and working communities of color bear the brunt of industrial toxins and waste that pollute their air, land and water, damaging the health of children and adults alike in those communities while also driving away the kind economic opportunities all Americans deserve. The same smart policies paired with innovative waste and energy technologies that help strengthen both our economy and our national security could also help alleviate the injustices these communities have faced for too long."

Ted joined Jeff Daly to discuss how politicians can never spend enough on education despite there being no accountability for that spending, the growth of education staffing across Illinois, Mayor Brandon Johnson’s $1 billion demand for Chicago schools, why Gov. Pritzker is providing $830 million in taxpayer subsidies to struggling EV carmaker Rivian, and more.
Duckworth seems to enjoy blowing smoke up her and everyone else’s rear end.
It’s nice that Tammy is interested in the Rockford area for a change now that this “green” project is seeking public subsidy. I wonder how much stock she has in the company?

Another one that goes along to keep their job!!!
No, Tammy is definitely not too bright. Tammy and Dickie are two very dim bulbs.
Both are stupid pos.
