One of the Greatest Generation is home. May God bless U.S. Army Pfc. Robert Bryant & family on his final journey home to Bloomington. 81 years after reported missing in action during WWII, his remains were recovered & he’s returning to his childhood home for burial with full military honors. 🇺🇸

Editorial: Gov. JB Pritzker goes to bat for Illinois’ business climate, earning union brickbats
Gov. JB Pritzker deserves credit for bucking union allies by vetoing bill that would harm Illinois’ business climate.
Manufacturers are first & foremost concerned about the safety of their employees & communities. This warehouse bill threatens IL's status as a manufacturing & TDL hub. The IMA led opposition & worked with the Gov's office to explain the negative consequences.

Commentary: Illinois should lift restrictions and enable large-scale nuclear projects
Illinois must continue to lead on nuclear energy generation, write a lawmaker, manufacturing association president and union official.
States that win on energy & workforce will lead on economic development, job creation, and capital investment.
Illinois must seize this nuclear moment to strengthen our grid, economy & national security while reaffirming our place as a leader in nuclear.
