WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, Congresswoman Nikki Budzinski (IL-13), Congressman Brad Finstad (MN-01), Congressman Don Davis (NC-01), and Congressman Dave Taylor (OH-02) introduced the bipartisan Rural Wellness Act to expand access to quality health care in rural communities by providing competitive grants for telemedicine projects, with an emphasis on projects focused on substance use disorder treatment. “No one should have to travel hours just to visit the doctor, and telemedicine is an efficient way to reduce the barriers to care so often faced by rural communities,” said Congresswoman Budzinski. “I’m proud to be working with colleagues on both sides of the aisle to introduce legislation to expand access to this technology while prioritizing care for mental and behavioral health, as these challenges impact countless folks across the country – no matter where you live. I’ll always fight to ensure that rural residents can receive the high-quality,

GODFREY - The Village of Godfrey has officially broken ground on a new dog park. On Friday, March 7, 2025, community leaders and Godfrey officials gathered at Glazebrook Park for a groundbreaking ceremony to mark the start of construction of the new dog park. “It’s something that’s been on the table off and on for quite a few years,” said Mayor Mike McCormick at the ceremony. McCormick pointed out that there was “a lot of controversy over a doggy daycare” at the village’s most recent board meeting , but that people are excited about the new dog park. He said that Godfrey resident Beth Heinz “got the ball rolling” when she came to his office with a presentation and the offer to help fund the park. Heinz shared that her father-in-law, Max Heinz, was on the Parks Board for many years, and he always wanted to open a dog park at Glazebrook Park. She is pleased to see his vision finally coming true. “I think this i

GRANITE CITY - The Tyler Timmins Memorial Foundation honored Officer Andrew Halley of the Granite City Police Department with the 2024 Officer of the Year Award during a ceremony. This award, established by the foundation in 2023, aims to recognize outstanding law enforcement officers for their dedication and service to the community. The foundation, which is dedicated to celebrating the contributions and sacrifices of police officers, emphasized the importance of acknowledging the hard work of law enforcement personnel. "As a team, we feel as if there is not enough appreciation shown to our officers in the form of recognition," a representative from the foundation said.

EDWARDSVILLE - Ryan Suhre is known more for his golf game at Metro-East Lutheran High School, but the senior guard has also made a positive contribution to the boys basketball team this season, as a reserve off the bench for the Knights. Suhre didn't score a point in Metro-East's first two regional games in the IHSA Class 1A playoffs as the Knights won over Mt. Olive 56-18 and regional host Raymond Lincolnwood 57-34 to go 19-11 going into the final on Feb. 28 against Hardin Calhoun, but contributed good defense to the Knights' cause. This season, he's averaged 1.2 points and 0.8 rebounds-per-game, also having one assist. In a postgame interview, Suhre felt good about his contributions, and just for the fact he's still playing on the team. "It's just exciting to keep playing basketball with these guys, and hopefully, we can go the distance," he said. For the Knights, Suhre is a BJ's Printables Male Athlete of the Month. The Knights have enjoyed a good season thus far, and have

Letter To The Editor: At the Special City Council Meeting of March 6th, the vote to increase the number of council members to request a Special Meeting from two to three was passed, as was expected, by a vote of 3-2. During our discussion, the City Attorney claimed that an Appellate Court case determined it required three council members to request a Special Meeting, and not two. I have asked the City Attorney to forward a copy of the court case and the authority she cited as proof that the state requires three, and not two, council members to hold a Special Meeting. I want to note, that two times in the past a prior City Attorney was proven to be wrong in her opinions, and the City had to take steps to correct actions that were taken by the council based upon her opinions. In addition, there was an attempt by Mr. Plank, who professes his commitment to transparency, to denigrate the need for Special Meetings. The Special Meeting of February 24th was called because the City Manager,
