House Bill 4417 requires every high school to observe an annual “Workplace Readiness Week.” The name sounds like it would help Illinois students prepare for the workforce: perhaps help them know how to apply for a job or prepare for an interview. Instead, it would mandate high schools provide students – every year – with information on issues such as “prohibitions against misclassification of employees as independent contractors,” family leave and – of course – the right to organize a union in the workplace.
Will the classes cover the Janus ruling and the ability to opt out of unions? Plus lessons in how to sue unions that violate Janus ruling provisions, claw back illegally stolen ‘dues’ and financial penalties to the Unions to discourage this illegal activity?
Somehow I doubt those topics would be part of the lesson plan.

May as well organize Young Pioneer groups in the schools with the kids wearing red neckerchiefs and caps with a red star on them. Pure Marxist indoctrination by these evil Democrats.

“Power corrupts; absolute power corrupts absolutely” This should be on the state flag.
The Illinois ruling claque prefers to have the population illiterate – especially so when it comes to “matters financial”, so of course a financial literacy education bill will die on the vine…
A largely unasked question is becoming glaring: Is Illinois doing all it should to use artificial intelligence to make government cost less and work better? So far, the evidence says no.

How about the state motto?
Meanwhile, I believe HB1375, requiring HS finance literacy class has still not passed or is dead?
