It’s Time To Bring Safer Rides To Illinois
Thursday, Apr 9, 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: Building Stronger Financial Futures
Thursday, Apr 9, 2026 - Posted by Advertising Department [The following is a paid advertisement.] April is Financial Literacy Month, a reminder of how valuable financial knowledge is for individuals and families across Illinois. Credit unions statewide embrace this mission year‑round by helping members understand their credit, strengthen their financial habits, and plan for long‑term success. When members apply for loans, credit unions look beyond a number. As Kari Endress of NuMark Credit Union explains, “A credit score is how we price the loan… it’s not necessarily whether you get the loan or not, because it’s all about the person.” This people‑first approach means credit union staff take the time to understand each member’s goals and financial journey. If a member isn’t ready for approval today, credit unions focus on building a path forward. These everyday habits are at the core of financial literacy. This Financial Literacy Month, Illinois credit unions encourage members to learn, ask questions, and take one positive step toward a stronger financial future.

2. HB 2371 SA 2 does NOT require state or taxpayer funding. 340B drugmakers are required to provide discounted drugs to hospitals and health centers caring for high numbers of low-income patients. 3. With federal Medicaid cuts looming, up to 500,000 Illinoisans could lose health coverage. Illinois hospitals face closure or service line cuts, as one-third operate on negative margins every year. HB 2371 SA 2 unanimously passed the Senate last spring. At a 340B rally last month, State Sen. Mattie Hunter said, “Across Illinois, families rely on a network of hospitals and community health centers that are there in their hardest moments. “I voted in favor of this bill because it protects access to care… Access to affordable care and medications is now more important than ever for working families, seniors and children. At a time when our state faces very tough financial pressures, this is a solution that strengthens care for patients without costing the state a single dollar.” Patients and the providers caring for them urge House members to vote YES on HB 2371 SA 2.
