Today we were ready to work for as long as it took to reach a fair deal, but management walked away from the table with five hours to go. It’s official: @NYTimesGuild members are walking out for 24 hours on Thursday. We know what we’re worth.

Pritzker on what he'll do if Trump mobilizes the military in Illinois: "Well, it's illegal. He can't do it. We won't request military assistance here in the state of Illinois. I can't imagine why any governor is going to do that. This is, it's ridiculous."

#AskShootingStar I know Dream Chaser is reusable, but I don’t see Shooting Star in any renderings when Dream Chaser lands. What happens to it when Dream Chaser deorbits?

This virus has infected infants; has killed people in their 20s, 30s and 40s, @GovPritzker says. COVID doesn't care that you're bored or want to hang with friends. If a loved one gets sick, you won't be able to go to the hospital with them as facilities can't handle visitors.

Pritzker officially announces all Illinois schools will be closed through March 30. Closure begins on Tuesday. “This is the right thing to do to protect the students, and their teachers and school workers and parents,” Pritzker says.

[Bridget Shanahan @bridgetshanahan]

If we’re serious about every child’s future, let’s get serious about doing what works. This means resourcing our public schools so that students have inviting classrooms, class sizes that are small enough, & strong support services. #SOTU #VouchersCostKids https://t.co/TPmRoMfB2C

Today, @ieanea called for a #RedforEd day in support of teachers across the State & Betsy Devos’s visit your Northern IL. I wore red on air today as I am a teacher too and from my experiences in West Virginia, teachers need all the support they can get! #SupportTeachers

Whenever I need a good laugh I just think of all the scenes in the Sopranos where Tony is driving around in his Suburban and imagine he’s in a Toyota Corolla instead.
