The @EIU_Panthers Athletic Department is saddened by the passing for Athletic Hall of Fame member Ed "Mac" Corley... Corley was selected to the EIU Hall of Fame in 2009 and was the 2006 winner of the @eiupantherclub Glen Hesler Award. eiupanthers.com/news/2021/2/…

IMF Managing Director @Kgeorgieva during her conversation with Barron’s @reshmakapadia on “The Wealth Gap: A Global Perspective.”
One of my main messages for a speedy and vibrant recovery from the pandemic: “Put more money in the hands of women.”

This is the longest period of time in history without a minimum wage increase. We cannot continue to leave workers behind. A new @USCBO report shows raising the minimum wage will give up to 27 MILLION workers a raise and lift 1.3 MILLION American workers out of poverty. – at Chicago, IL
