ILGOP GRASSROOTS FORUM
— The future leadership of the Illinois Republican Party will be decided Monday, May 18 in Springfield, when the Illinois Republican State Central Committee (SCC) votes for the next ILGOP Chair in a closed meeting. Each SCC member casts a weighted vote based on Republican performance in their congressional district, so every district has a voice in the process. (See the spreadsheet I made below.) The four announced candidates for Chair are: • Kathy Salvi (incumbent) • Bob Grogan • Scott Gryder • Lawrence Stowe If you have thoughts about the direction of the Illinois Republican Party, now is the time to contact your SCC member and make your voice heard. If you’re in my district, give me a call at 815-508-3717 or message me here. SCC contact information can be found here: https://illinois.gop/party-officials Leadership matters. Fundraising matters. Candidate recruitment matters. Grassroots engagement matters. This vote will help shape the future of the Illinois GOP heading into the 2026 election and beyond. Chair is a 4-year term.

BLOOMBERG LAW
— Illinois Redistricting Law Hit With Constitutional Challenge. An Illinois state law that requires race to be considered in any redistricting plan violates the US Constitution, a lawsuit said. The Illinois Voting Rights Act of 2011 includes requirements that “make racial considerations a core purpose of all legislative line drawing in Illinois,” Jeanne Ives alleged in a complaint filed May 8 in the US District Court for the Central District of Illinois. Ives is a former Illinois Republican state representative who also ran for governor and Congress.

— Johnson jabs lawmakers over Bears subsidies
https://www.politico.com/newsletters/illinois-playbook/2026/05/06/johnson-jabs-lawmakers-over-bears-subsidies-00907545
(FROM THE NEWSLETTER: Republican Darren Bailey says he’s not going to ban abortion if he’s elected governor. In a social media post yesterday, he said, “Let’s settle this right now: I am not banning abortion. And I am not restricting it. I’ve got two jobs as your next governor: put more money in your pocket and make sure you can walk down your street safely. JB has failed at both.” The tweet follows Democratic Gov. JB Pritzker poking Bailey on the issue. Earlier this week, Pritzker sent out a campaign message saying, “Bailey has consistently opposed abortion without exceptions, including in cases of rape or incest, earning him top ratings from Illinois Right to Life Action.” What it means: Bailey has already said he’s not a MAGA Republican, now this. It looks like a sign that winds are changing in the Republican Party.)

My paying back the loans that I took out to buy a new 1972 Corvette in 1971, a new townhome in 1972, and condos in 1974 and 1976 shows that I would have paid back a student loan if I had gotten one. If I had gotten a student loan, my GPA would have been higher because I spent far too many hours working instead of studying. If I had a higher GPA, I could have gotten better paying jobs.
