Uh oh. Yes, Kamala is leading, but don't rely on these polls, make sure to register and vote blue like your life depends on it because it does.

Tell Mayor Lightfoot & CPS to stop cutting our schools:
https://t.co/d2ohalR9cM

CPS & Mayor Lightfoot have only used 7% of the American Rescue Plan money. That money needs to go to our schools instead of slashing our budgets!

@McKLEM @kmoser8 sadly boosters are not available for kids and recent studies are showing the vaccine has about 12% efficacy for kids 5-11

@HeatherCherone I’m not in favor of a casino but the South Loop is the most NIMBY neighborhood… especially considering our backyard is the downtown of the country’s 3rd largest city.

Less than .01% of original prairies remain in IL, the so called Prairie State. Bell Bowl Prairie, at just 5 acres, is ¼ of all remaining dry gravel prairie. @JBPritzker @GovPritzker plans to use 50+ million dollars in taxpayer’s money to destroy it! #SaveBellBowlPrairie

911 was over 20 years ago and we’re still removing our shoes at the airport. But, #COVID19 has killed nearly a million people, thousands daily to this day, and people want to end mask mandate “security theater”? 🤦🏾‍♀️

New poll shows that the majority of Americans support remote learning.

Support is stronger in working class communities than the rich.

More BIPOC support remote learning than white people.

62% of parents with children younger than 18 support remote learning vs 48% of boomers.

@chicagobars Why don’t we close the bars again to stop the spread of omicron? Stick to your own arena.

@meena The harmful messaging that “school is the safest place for kids” comes from Biden at the top.

#Stopshotspotter // A Shotspotter hearing was pushed back to Nov. 12, AFTER the budget vote. The people deserve a public hearing BEFORE the budget vote. Surveillance will never keep us safe: share, and tell your alderman you don't support funding Shotspotter! (1/2)

I have been seeing a lot of lovelies I know and care about in need of urgent funds, including me! If you are a lovely youth in need of support and love please drop ways people can support you. WE KEEP US SAFE ALWAYS

The rate among 10-14s has now gone over 1000 per 100K. This is out of control -- cases are now doubling every 7 days in this age group. If the government was concerned about children getting Covid it would have to take action now. But it looks like it's just part of the plan.

@HalleQuezada Thinking of you and your family ❤️ Hoping he has a quick recovery.

[CPS COVID-19 Dashboard @CPSCovid]

Just a reminder that the 3rd largest school district in the US is lagging at least a week behind on updating the public on COVID-19 cases in its schools.

Fauci supports mask and vaccine mandates in schools. Ventilation/open windows in schools is “critical.” Lunch should be outside if possible. @nytimesevents w/ @apoorva_nyc

We are officially back to getting crushed by #COVID, and for #pediatricians this wave feels *worse* in many ways. And as a pediatric hospitalist who has been a front-line COVID doctor for the entire pandemic, I’m going to share what I’ve seen the last 8 days on service. 1/

@Karnythia @Endurance97 Definitely sounds like none of it made sense - like Lollapalooza happening this year and 400k + showing up. When our kids are still at risk and being asked to go back to school in person in less than a month.

[Emily A @emilyeandersson]

@the_mcguire @Karnythia whole family was in a life threatening situation
