As 1000s of pages of legislation move thru the GA w/ hastily called hearings, here’s a reminder that the Supreme Court kinda just lets them do whatever they want. Previous reporting on the enrolled bill doctrine that paves the way for gut and replace: capitolnewsillinois.com/news…

🌟Some personal news to end a busy week of news🌟
Today is my last day with The Daily Line.
Next week I will be joining the great team at @CapitolNewsIL as their newest statehouse reporter.
See you for veto session!
Proud to have @McCormick_Fdn on our team, and was happy to have @torresrandres and Sam at our recent events in Chicago and Springfield!
Big thanks to our event guests and Andrés Torres & Samuel Muñeton Jr. of the Robert R. McCormick Foundation for their steadfast support of Capitol News Illinois! McCormick’s crucial backing fuels our award-winning Statehouse & investigative reporting. 🏛️🔍 #Journalism

Your favorite drummer, @Sarahwrites67?
I always enjoy visiting with the students and staff at @Thornridge205!
The journalism students at @Thornridge205 always have such great questions about the profession! The Foundation and @ILFarmBureau are proud to provide a journalism grant to their program to help them continue to learn and do great work!

The journalism students at St. Charles North High School are a fun bunch! The Foundation and @ILFarmBureau are happy to assist them with a high school journalism grant that will help them purchase an iPad, teleprompter kit and more!

Congrats to Julie Pusinelli, English Teacher & @LTHSPorterPress Sponsor, for applying for a grant from the Illinois Press Foundation & Illinois Farm Bureau. She was selected to receive money for the school newspaper & plans to put it towards a 📷 for the club.

Illinois Press Foundation Board member Linda Jones visited @CarlSchurzHS on Tuesday to take a grant check from @ILFarmBureau and the Foundation to help the efforts of the school's student journalists. Can't wait to see what they do in the school year ahead!
I loved today's visit with the students, teachers and administrators at Madison School!
The work the students do at Madison School in South Holland and their Mad 7 Action News broadcast project is amazing! The Foundation and @ILFarmBureau are proud to support their efforts with a journalism grant check. Such a fantastic group of young students!

A journalism grant from @ILFarmBureau and the Foundation will allow @YorkD205 to purchase a new MacBook for its students so they can continue to do the fantastic multimedia work they're doing with @chambersatyork at the helm. We're proud to help the program there again!
