Chag Sukkot Sameach to all who celebrate! One of my favorite traditions of Sukkot is building the sukkah with my family. It’s a chance for us to spend time together, appreciate the beauty of nature around us, and welcome the beginning of fall. #sukkot #chagsameach

Out of an abundance of caution, our Forest and Beach Clean-Up at Fort Sheridan has been canceled due to unsafe walking conditions along the Lake Michigan shoreline following the recent heavy rains and high humidity. We thank everyone for their interest and understanding.

Big news, Illinois. We got it done. For years, businesses could show you one price and then sneak in extra charges right before you hit “pay.” Service fees, processing fees, convenience fees, bag fees. Costs nobody asked for. That ends now. (1/4)

It's official: the Junk Fee Ban Act is now law in Illinois. For too long, Illinois families have been losing approximately $3,000 a year to deceptive junk fees: sneaky charges tacked on right before checkout that you never agreed to. Today, that changes. (1/4)

In the U.S.: - 6.7 million kids live in a home with an unlocked, loaded gun. - 8 kids a day are unintentionally injured or killed by family fire. June 21 is ASK Day. A simple question: "Is there an unlocked gun where my child plays?", can save a life. (1/2)
