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.

Thanks to Governor JB Pritzker signature on the bill, that means we'll have stronger drainage systems, better protection for homes, and real progress toward addressing the flooding challenges Lake County communities have faced for far too long. (6/6)

When Rebuild Illinois passed in 2019, it created the largest infrastructure investment program in our state’s history. Here at home, we’re seeing that investment at work along Sheridan Road in Highland Park. (2/6)

AI is developing at a remarkable pace, often faster than state legislatures can respond. From algorithms influencing whether patients can access care to concerns about chatbots, states can’t afford to simply wait for DC to act. (2/4)

Last year, Governor JB Pritzker signed my bill, HB 1806, into law, establishing new protections around the use of AI in mental health care in Illinois. But passing one law can’t be the end of the conversation. #ArtificialIntelligence #Claude #healthcare #Pritzker #Illinois (1/4)
