A set of state lawmakers want to extend CPS’ current school closing moratorium to February 1, 2027 – the same year CPS is set to transition to a fully-elected school board. That means schools like Manley High School, with capacity for more than 1,000 students but enrollment of just 78, can’t be closed for anther three years. The school spends $45,000 per student, but just 2.4% of students read at grade level.
Hopefully, all media will get the message, in Illinois, too.
Ted joined Tom Miller of WJPF to talk about Illinois’ highest-in-the-nation property taxes, why lawmakers don’t want to touch the tax’s cost drivers, just how much Illinoisans’ tax burden has grown over the decades, why Gov. Pritzker failed to meet his promise to reform property taxes, and more.
MJBA – Make Jail Bad Again !
Caught with an illegal weapon? Automatic bad jail for one year – then you can tell your story.
Your welcome Beetlejuice, … just because you’re mad you don’t have gear, pretend you have some balls!
RINO Lausch , loris bff, who get her elected by indicting Burke to take out Daley, Preckwinkle and Mendoza, paving the way for Loris victory. He will do nothing to prosecute these domestic terrorists because Lori and Kim won’t approve. All show.
Kimm Foxx, the states attorney, will let all black suspects go and only seek to charge any whites. Restorative Justice is the name of the game and all blacks are exempt from prosecution under her leadership.
Think of all the money being spent because Governor Pritzker and Mayor Lightfoot did not do their best on Friday May 29th, Saturday May 30th, Sunday May 31st and beyond to shut down these protests.
But in particular on Friday May 29th.
Safety and protecting private property before your political agenda!
She failed miserably to suppress the riots. She announced a curfew 45 minutes before it was to take effect.
They wanted riots. They encouraged them. Remember, the cause of this was the 1619 virus.
Lori wanted riots to get more free money and to hurt trump.
