Willie Wilson: Democrats and Republicans fight over immigrants while children fall further behind – Chicago Tribune*

"This is a crisis. If Gov. JB Pritzker, Mayor Brandon Johnson, Cook County Board President Toni Preckwinkle and the Illinois General Assembly exerted the same zeal toward making sure our children can read and do basic math as they have to protecting migrants, our children and communities would be in a better place."

“The problem isn’t that Johnny can’t read.
The problem isn’t even that Johnny can’t think.
The problem is that Johnny doesn’t know what thinking is; he confuses it with feeling.”

All those Democrats could care less about educating students. If they restated, then they would place more importance on truly educating kids so they can succeed in today’s world. Graduating and promoting students who can’t read or do math is lazy and ludicrous

immigrants and children that can’t read and write are future candidates for the free stuff army voting block. Perhaps it all part of the plan.
