Dick Durbin has been in IL politics for nearly 50 years. Heโ€™s retiring next year.
For the unaware, Illinois โ€“ and especially Chicago โ€“ politicians have been corrupt as hell. Iโ€™d like to know what he got out of this.

I have always been registered as an Independent but usually vote Dem.
The rampant corruption of leadership in both major parties is undeniable at this point. They all serve the billionaire class. We need a party for the people!

A single family new home build - without upgraded finishing - starts at around $200 per square foot. Tariffs on building materials continue to drive up costs. When average household income in the US is around $63,000/year and median income approximately $80,000/yr, owning is unaffordable.
