@thiswishistaken @DrBravo2 @ballesteros_312 CTA doesn’t run enough busses frequently enough to get 6,000 fannys in seats by 8 am. Trust.

[Sherry Skalko @sskalko]

How about we demand increased and reliable service from CTA before and after school instead?

@JessRMyers @luthercollege @norsesports How cool is that?

BREAKING: @GovPritzker signed the Small Plastic Bottle Act!👏

We're grateful for the leadership of the Governor & bill sponsors @SenatorFine & @RepKamBuckner. This bill brings IL another step forward in reducing the huge amount of single-use plastics in our environment. #twill

How can you not love on Wisconsin?

We’re the state that created kindergarten, the progressive movement, worker’s compensation, and Earth Day.

We’re the state that passed the first laws protecting women’s rights, LGBTQ+ rights, and disability rights.

White friends, especially white women who did not have an undergraduate sorority experience:

In the coming months you’ll likely see a great deal of content about VP Harris’ sorority affiliation and the support from its members. We 🩷 it. Some info & tips for us: 🧵

BREAKING: The Chicago City Council voted 34-13 Wednesday to spend $51M from the city’s 2021 budget surplus to help care for migrants sent to Chicago from Texas after tension between Black and Latino Chicagoans boiled over. @wttw

[Sherry Skalko @sskalko]

That was an amazing speech.

[Heather Cherone @HeatherCherone]

Ald. Jeanette Taylor says she is conflicted.
Taylor is crying, but says that it is because she is angry by the treatment Black people have received for decades.
