Wednesday, Apr 22, 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.

Credit Unions Help Our Community Move Forward
Wednesday, Apr 22, 2026 - Posted by Advertising Department [The following is a paid advertisement.] April is National Financial Literacy Month, a time to recognize the importance of education, guidance, and support in building financial confidence. At Illinois credit unions, financial literacy isn’t just about learning concepts; it’s about helping people navigate real life situations. It can also involve everyday financial decisions, purchasing a new or used vehicle, replacing an essential appliance, or using a bridge loan to get through a transition. Financial literacy comes to life when members understand their options and feel confident choosing what’s best for them. Credit unions’ commitment extends beyond individual needs to the greater good. Shannel Jackson and Sharon Jackson of Park Manor Christian Church Credit Union state, “We are there to help our members. We are there to help our community…. we are a credit union of people who are working together.” Credit Unions celebrate the power of education, teamwork, and compassion. When we work together, everyone can move forward financially and successfully. Learn more at https://betterforillinois.org/ Paid for by Illinois Credit Union League.
