Let’s talk about it!! Where is the black faculty you’ve recruited for 30 years as Polly Radosh stated? @WesternILUniv

[WIU NAACP @WIU_NAACP]

Use #BlackAtWIU to share your experiences. Let’s continue to expose those who think they can get away with mistreating the black student body . @BSAofWIU we stand with you !!!

[Black Student Assoc. @BSAofWIU]

Polly Radosh, a member of the BOT for the past two years. Tried to discredit black students experience claiming that so much has been done to help black students. Can anyone let us know what has been done. @WesternILUniv specifically for BLACK students.
#BlackAtWIU

[Black Student Assoc. @BSAofWIU]

Sign the petition!! We need to get Polly Radosh removed. Her behavior was unacceptable and we are demanding consequences be taken. @WesternILUniv

Sheriff Nicholas Petitgout lied on the record. THERE WERE NO THREATS. 61k+ emails about the case & NOT A SINGLE THREAT, #SheriffPetty. Falsely implying hordes of threats b/c #HumanRights abuse by white jailors against a disabled Black woman = RACIST DOGWHISTLE. #Justice

We are working around the clock to increase testing capacity, vaccine availability, and support for our hospitals. I'll have more to say on this tomorrow.

In the meantime: Get vaccinated, get boosted, wear a mask. And keep the faith.

We’ll get through this together.

[President Biden Archived @POTUS46Archive]

4. To our frontline workers, I am in awe of your sacrifices. Thank you for the work you are putting in on this wave after a painful and difficult two years. We owe you a tremendous debt. I am once again asking for your strength, and I’ll never forget it.

[President Biden Archived @POTUS46Archive]

3. We still need to take precautions and remain vigilant. Listen to the advice from doctors: even if you’re fully vaccinated, you should wear a mask when indoors in a public setting. It will help protect you and others—especially kids under 5 who can’t get vaccinated yet.

[President Biden Archived @POTUS46Archive]

2. Omicron cases will increase in the coming days—even among fully vaccinated individuals. If you’re vaccinated and boosted, you may still get a breakthrough case but doctors say you will likely have no symptoms or mild ones.

[President Biden Archived @POTUS46Archive]

1. We know that vaccines are working. If you are boosted with Pfizer or Moderna, you have a high degree of protection against severe illness with Omicron. If you’re an adult choosing to be unvaccinated, you will face an extremely difficult winter for your family and community.

[President Biden Archived @POTUS46Archive]

Folks, Omicron cases are on the rise in the United States. I want to give you all a sense of where we are and what we know.

save the date: @Croke4Illinois @RepAnnWilliams @AndradeRep40 will be hosting a virtual town hall with Sheriff Tom Dart on electrnic monitoring

[Rep. Ann Williams @RepAnnWilliams]

Elected officials at all levels must ensure the tools designed to keep communities safe and prevent violent crime are working as they should. Join us for a virtual conversation with Sheriff Tom Dart about the role and efficacy of electronic monitoring in Cook County.

With BBB delayed, Child Tax Credits will expire and student loans will restart within a matter of weeks. Working families could lose thousands of $/mo just as prices are rising.

That alone is reason for @POTUS to act on student loans ASAP - w/ either moratorium or cancellation.
