State Representative Ian Mackey (D-St. Louis) is no fan of Missouri's new book-banning law. But he's also not a fan of school superintendents now taking books out of schools in response to it. He says they're being too "risk averse" and "need a little bit more backbone."
From the introduction of new clubs to the addition of staffers—humans and therapy dogs alike—area schools are working overtime to make sure kids at all grade levels have the help and support they need to carry on.

After finishing last year with a combined 672 yards, a statistic that led his team, he's already on his way again this season.

Withrow is a Quality Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram of Jerseyville Male Athlete of the Month. Where he's most dangerous is on kick returns. 490 yards were from kickoff and punt returns last season.

SPRINGFIELD — Governor Pritzker announced today that his administration has taken steps to proactively address a shutdown at a BP facility in Whiting, Indiana caused by an electrical fire. Illinois, along with Indiana, Michigan, and Wisconsin, requested and were granted an emergency waiver of federal fuel regulations from the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). “After learning of the electrical fire at the BP facility in Whiting, our administration has taken proactive steps to increase gas supply and reduce barriers so all Illinoisans have access to the fuel they need,” said Governor JB Pritzker. “This coordinated effort with our neighboring states will reduce the chance of disruptions and keep the people and businesses of Illinois moving.” The temporary waiver, which was granted through September 15, 2022, allows for high volatility gasoline to be sold during the summer months, reducing fuel disruptions following the fire which broke
In an apparent about-face, Katherine Pinner plans to remain in the race to challenge incumbent St. Louis County Executive Sam Page this November.

In an updated blog post published Tuesday morning, Pinner wrote, "I am affirming my candidacy for the office of Saint Louis County…
Unfortunately, last night, the California Senate passed some horribly dangerous bills that we’ve been warning about the past few weeks — and they’re heading to Governor Newsom’s desk for signing. It seems likely he will sign them, even as that will be a huge, and dangerous mistake. First up was AB 2273 the “Age Appropriate […]
