It’s Time To Bring Safer Rides To Illinois
Tuesday, Apr 14, 2026 - Posted by Advertising Department [The following is a paid advertisement.] Waymo is ready to bring safe, reliable, autonomous rides to Illinois – but we need your help! Waymo is already mapping Chicago’s unique streets and traffic patterns to lay the groundwork for operations. Never tired or distracted, Waymo provides hundreds of thousands of fully autonomous rides every week across ten major U.S. cities, from Los Angeles to Atlanta — from multi-lane expressways to dense city streets, including the demands of winter weather. The data shows Waymo’s autonomous vehicles are involved in thirteen times fewer injury-causing collisions compared to humans (as of 3/20/26, see waymo.com/safety). Let’s bring safer rides to Illinois. ![]()

Illinois Credit Unions Celebrate Financial Literacy Month
Tuesday, Apr 14, 2026 - Posted by Advertising Department [The following is a paid advertisement.] April is Financial Literacy Month, a time when credit unions across Illinois highlight the importance of financial education, empowerment, and access. As Joe Webb, President/CEO of Cooperative Choice Credit Union shared, “If a legislator came to visit us, I’d want them to actually meet with some of our members. I think they tell our stories better than we do.” Members bring real-life examples of how credit unions step up, especially during moments when a bigger institution may have placed barriers in the way. These firsthand experiences show what financial empowerment truly looks like:
• Being met with understanding instead of judgment • Accessing services designed around people, not profits Credit unions succeed because they’re large enough to provide strong financial services, yet “still small enough that we can do that one-on-one, detailed member-to-member experience.” That personalized support is a form of financial literacy. It helps members understand their options, make confident decisions, and build stronger financial futures.

340B Hospitals Support Transparency Requirements – Pass HB 2371 SA 2 To Support Patients
Tuesday, Apr 14, 2026 - Posted by Advertising Department [The following is a paid advertisement.] Legislation to protect 340B, House Bill 2371 SA 2, contains NEW transparency requirements that Illinois hospitals agree with. Reporting and audits—from patient data to charity care—are normal activities in hospitals. Ensuring 340B program integrity is no exception. Illinois hospitals consider the federal 340B program a critical resource that helps provide lifesaving medications and critical healthcare services to low-income and uninsured patients. Hospitals and Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs) invest savings from 340B discounted drugs into health services benefiting underserved communities. Many patients in Illinois need 340B to survive. The hospitals need it too, as they expect to lose up to $57 billion in federal Medicaid funding over the next decade. HB 2371 SA 2 strengthens transparency and accountability while protecting the care communities rely on. Stand with patients, hospitals and FQHCs – Pass HB 2371 at NO cost to taxpayers and with NO needed budget appropriation. Learn more.
