PHOENIX - Illinois is the No. 49 growth state in America, according to the U-Haul ® Growth Index analyzing customer moves during 2022.

These amendments allowed former Attorney General William Barr and DOJ to bypass certain regulatory steps in ordering federal executions; expand the permissible methods of execution beyond lethal injection; and authorize the use of state facilities and personnel in federal executions, among other changes. Twenty-six co-sponsors of the Federal Death Penalty Prohibition Act , of which Durbin and Pressley are the lead sponsors, subsequently submitted a letter to Attorney General Garland endorsing the Durbin/Pressley comment letter and
ST. LOUIS - The St. Louis region marked a series of major milestones in 2022 that enhanced the bi-state area’s freight network at a time when supply chain disruptions were the norm and the need for resiliency and redundancy had never been greater. From the lingering effects of COVID-19 to the historic drought that severely impacted barge traffic on the Mississippi River, 2022 underscored the importance of being able to offer shippers options when it comes to moving their goods. It also further reinforced the effectiveness of the nationally recognized approach the St. Louis region is taking to strengthen freight infrastructure. “Supply chain hurdles like the low water levels we have experienced the last few months serve as reminders of the importance of multimodal infrastructure providing redundancy and helping to resolve supply chain disruptions,” said Mary Lamie, Executive Vice President – Multi-Modal Enterprises for Bi-State Development and head of the St.
