Gov. J.B. Pritzker is ending the state’s requirement that unvaccinated school and day care workers undergo routine testing for COVID-19, removing one of the few remaining mandates Illinois has in place to combat the spread of the disease.
Dr. Sameer Vohra, director of the Illinois Department of Public Health, said a statement that new tools, such as the pediatric vaccines, new boosters aimed at the latest variants and more effective treatment have improved the ability to manage the virus. Public health officials recently have focused on promoting the new booster shots, authorized at the end of August for people 12 and older who’ve previously been vaccinated, as the primary hope for warding off another surge as the weather turns cold and people spend more time indoors.
Election time. What a surprise.

Gov. Pritzker, Mayor Lightfoot to address migrant influx as 5th round arrives in Chicago from TexasAfter a fifth round of migrants from Texas arrived at Chicago Union Station Tuesday, Gov. JB Pritzker and Mayor Lori Lightfoot will address the situation Wednesday morning. I wonder which suburb the sanctuary city mayor and gov will send this bus in the middle of the night as they say their welcomed during the day? Pritzker should have pull with Hyatt Hotel family used to own it and members still involved so shouldn’t he push to get these poor people nice accommodations at the abundant Hyatt hotels in the area…🤔 I’m talking free breakfast wi-fi and mini bar access here by the way! DHS used private military (MVM) to bus migrants against their will last year when the media was descending on El Paso. Not sure they’ve got a leg to stand on here.

Gov. Pritzker issues disaster proclamation to unlock resources to assist asylum seekersPritzker says the proclamation is necessary to ensure sufficient capacity to meet the needs of more than 500 asylum seekers who have arrived already, with more buses arriving nearly every day. Dose Pritzker have any idea how many illegal immigrants enter Illinois each month? Yes, he does. And NY does. It’s a lot more than are coming from Texas. Wouldn’t have this issue if you had a wall and guards at the borders. Making these people come in illegally is wrong. Whatever happened to coming in and doing the process. You’re Letting in terrorist

Gov. Pritzker issues disaster proclamation to assist migrants bused in from TexasGov. JB Pritzker announced a disaster proclamation to assist migrants that have been bussed into the state by Texas Gov. Greg Abbott. Bit racist to call these people a 'disaster', but that's the Party of Slavery for you. So now even the word “disaster” has lost its meaning? Make it stop. As much as I dislike Gov Greg Abbott, I have to say he has come up with a great strategy to bring home the problems Texas is facing from lack of a national immigration strategy to liberal so called “sanctuary cities” who are comfortably far away from our southern border. 👍

The tragedies of 9/11 and COVID-19 gave me a new appreciation for freedomI received the Freedom Award from former N.Y. Gov.
