Tomorrow marks one year without money bail in Illinois. No longer are families forced to choose between paying rent and paying a ransom for their loved one’s freedom. This makes us all safer.

We need to create more spaces for people to have positive experiences with #cogovernance. It’s not a destination. It’s an ongoing process. —@Mariafor49

Just periodic reminder that you should work in local government for at least a few years because a) you will learn a lot, b) you will meet a lot of cool people, and c) you will get to be a part of our collective commitment to helping each other
