“83% of favor photo voter id to vote per Pew. This includes 70%+ of Democrats and Republicans, as well as 75%+ of Americans across races.... White, Black, and Latino.

It's not controversial.” - Harry Enten

Governor JB Pritzker is pathetically bragging "Illinois recorded its third consecutive year of population growth, according to the US Census Bureau."

Yea, due to international migration, not U.S. citizens. Illinois lost over 40,000 U.S. citizens who moved to other states.

🧭 What’s Driving These Changes?

1. International Migration (Major Growth Factor)

Illinois gained 44,000+ international migrants in the most recent year.

This surge has been consistent since 2022.

2. Domestic Out‑Migration (Major Loss Factor)

More than 40,000 Illinois residents moved to other states in the latest reporting period.

High taxes remain the top reason cited by those leaving.

3. Natural Change (Births vs. Deaths)

Only about 11,000 net gain from births minus deaths.

❄️ Bitter cold has settled in across Will County this Friday morning, and it’s only going to get harsher over the next few days. Wind chills are expected to stay well below zero, so this is a good time for our community to look out for one another and stay prepared.

🔥 A few quick reminders for our neighbors:

• Limit time outdoors and dress in layers
• Check on seniors, veterans, and anyone who may need a hand
• Bring pets inside
• Keep an eye on local warming center updates
• Be cautious on the roads as temperatures drop further

Strong communities take care of each other, and Joliet always shows up when it counts. Stay safe, stay warm, and let’s get through this cold stretch together. ❄️🇺🇸

I saw this comment on one of the Elevation Worship YouTube videos, “Trust in God”. This story blessed me deeply ❤️ “Wait for the Lord; be strong, and let your heart take courage; wait for the Lord!”
