Those are just some of the more than 300 new laws that take effect in the new year. The minimum wage increase is actually the result of a 2019 law that phases in a state minimum wage to $15 an hour by 2025. This year, it will increase by one dollar to $12 anThehour.law allowing public housing tenants to keep pets is the result of Senate Bill 154, by Sen. Linda Holmes, D-Aurora, and Rep. Stephanie Kifowit, D-Oswego. It provides that tenants of multifamily housing units that are acquired, built or renovated with money from the Illinois Affordable Housing Trust Fund may keep up to two cats or one dog weighing less than 50 pounds. It applies to residents of housing units that are designated as affordable housing for low- and very-lowincome families. The bill passed both chambers in its final form on May 30 and Gov. JB Pritzker signed it into law Aug. 6.

Other new laws include: Vehicle taxes: SB58 raises the private vehicle tax, which is a sales tax paid on the purchase of vehicles, by $75 for each model year where the purchase price is less than $15,000 and by $100 for vehicles priced above that amount. However, the registration fee for trailers weighing less than 3,000 pounds will drop to $36 instead of $118.
The wage gap has not closed Women earned 82 cents for every dollar men earned in 2020, up from 80 cents in 2003.

AAUW reported that women are less likely than men to hold high er-paying jobs in the sector. Women represent more than half of all textile workers, which are paid less than half as much as oil and coal workers.

Minimum wage hike, pets in public housing among new changes
Food manufacturing has seen the greatest increase in women’s employ ment Food manufacturing has seen the greatest increase in female employ ees over time, and around 686,000 women work in food manufacturing nationwide as of 2021. This subsector employs the highest percentage of women as well (38.5%). At their lowest participation, women accounted for 34.8% of the food manufacturing workforce in 2003. Metal product manufacturing has dropped to the lowest Several types of metal are manufactured in the U.S. Nucor Corp. in Charlotte, North Carolina, specializes in steel products, while Alcoa Corp. in Pittsburgh manufactures bauxite, alumina, and aluminum. According to the U.S. Geological Survey, iron and steel make up about 95% of the tonnage produced domestically each year. Metal product manufacturing has the lowest participation of women in the workforce, totaling approximately 255,000. In 2003, more than 20% of metal manufacturers were women. Machine and equipment manufacturing has seen a slight decline in female employment. Since 2003, the percentage of women workers in ma chinery and equipment manufacturing has dipped slightly from over 28% to just under 26%. The average wage of an equipment manufacturer varies by what sort of equipment they’re manufacturing, with automobile manufactur ing workers earning on average $27.74 and apparel manufacturing workers earning on average $14.06 per hour.
As explained by Elizabeth Monkus, Civil Program Attorney for Chicago Ap pleseed Center for Fair Courts and the Chicago Council of Lawyers: “This evalu ation is long needed. For years, advocates and attorneys alike have told us how the Domestic Violence Division consistently fails their clients by creating unnecessary barriers to justice, but unfortunately, the Circuit Court has not comprehensively evaluated the Divisions’ functioning. Cook County’s Domestic Violence Division and consolidated courthouse exhibits many features associated with best practices in domestic violence courts generally, and yet is not operating at the fullness of its potential. These findings have been enlightening.”
Still, women in manufacturing often earn better wages than those in other industries: AAUW reported that women in manufacturing make 11.5% more than women in other private sector jobs. This story originally appeared on Get It Made and was produced and distributed in partnership with Stacker Studio.

Using data from the BLS and the Census Bureau’s Current Population Survey, Get It Made compiled a list of trends about women working across the manufacturing industries. Certain data collection only began in 2003, and the graphics reflect this. Data was extracted using IPUMS-CPS from the University of “Manufacturing”Minnesota.isanumbrella term for a range of sectors, from food production equipment and nonmetal fabrication to metal product manufac turing and parts and equipment building. Women work across manufactur ing subsectors, making up a large part of the apparel and textiles manufac turing workforce (67.3% and 53.5%, respectively), and a smaller part of the primary metals (14.3%) and wood products (14.9%) industries as well.
ADVOCATES RELEASE FIRST COMPREHENSIVE EVALUATION OF
In April 2022, in the face of rising public criticism of the Division, the Of fice of the Chief Judge of the Circuit Court of Cook County established a Com mittee on Domestic Violence Court to review the court’s organization, staffing, communication, and technology. While this Committee – which included court stakeholders and community advocates – appeared dedicated to improving the functioning of the DV Court, our evaluation, which has been in the works since early 2020, is the first public report of its kind. In it, we include information from interviews with over 35 anti-domestic violence and anti-sexual assault advocates, legal aid and private lawyers, and Cook County Circuit Court judges, and observations of at least 188 court hearings. Our findings show that procedures and structures in the Domestic Violence Courthouse reflect and perpetuate systemic sexism and racism; there is a general disconnect between judges and court staff and the needs of litigants, which is exacerbated by technology and training issues and limited operational capacity; judicial culture and bias, lack of trauma-informed practice, and the need for training severely impacts quality of and access to justice; and that issues with the Clerk of the Circuit Court’s Office, which pre-date remote proceedings in the pandemic, are consistent and pervasive. Based on these findings and community feedback, we recommend that the Circuit Court of Cook County make efforts to improve accessibility, communication, holistic services for the community, and judicial training. These recommendations include, specifically, providing more flexible hours of operation; keeping remote hearings available but optional; im proving community engagement and litigant services; holding the Office of the Clerk of the Court accountable; requiring ongoing judicial training to support trauma-informed and culturally-competent practice; and more.

How
A note about gendered statistics: Data has historically been collected using a binary understanding of sex and gender, making it difficult to repre sent or capture the full story of the general population. For the purposes of incorporating BLS and Census data, the language specified therein has been used for purposes of consistency. Women continue to make up about 30% of employees in manufactur ing About half of all employees in the U.S. are women, but they make up approximately 30% of the manufacturing sector. This figure has remained relatively unchanged from 2003 to 2021. The American Association of University Women reported in 2020 that the “loss of manufacturing jobs in the early 2000s disproportionately hurt women,” and those who remain face sexual harassment and pay/opportunity inequality. These factors, combined with inadequate family leave policies, lead to women in manufacturing being more likely to leave their jobs than women in other industries.
New state laws taking effect Jan. 1
While women face barriers in manufacturing that men typically don’t—such as sexual harassment and lower pay—since 2003, women’s wages have actually grown faster than men’s wages.

Between January 2000 and January 2020, employment in the manu facturing sector decreased 26% nationwide, in part due to automation and international competition with countries like China. Women were more affected than men, losing 31% of their jobs in the industry compared to men losing 23%, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

Chicago Appleseed Center for Fair Courts’ Director of Communications, Stephanie Agnew, expressed: “The information provided to us by practitioners and advocates was invaluable, but we ran into several research limitations – main ly, our inability to access quantitative data from the courts. Illinois is one of only a handful of states that does not require or permit disclosure of court data through Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests nor judiciary-specific statutes or rules. This greatly hinders the public’s ability to meaningfully understand aggre gate demographic or case information and, unfortunately, limits our study.”

On Tuesday, Aug. 16th, the U.S. Department of Education (Department) announced that it will discharge all remaining federal student loans that borrowers received to attend ITT Technical Institute (ITT) from January 1, 2005, through its closure in Sep tember 2016. The decision, which follows Departmental findings based on extensive internal records, testimony from ITT managers and recruiters, and first-hand accounts from borrowers, will result in 208,000 borrowers receiving $3.9 billion in full loan discharges. This includes borrowers who have not yet applied for a borrower defense to repayment discharge. These borrowers will have the federal student loans they received to attend ITT discharged without any additional action on their part.

Report from National Women’s Law Center and Partners Examines
WASHINGTON, PRNewswire -- The National Women’s Law Center, in collaboration with the In sight Center and Groundwork Collaborative, released The Roots of Discriminatory Housing Policy: Moving Toward Gender Justice in Our Economy, a report that underscores the inextricable links between housing jus tice and gender justice and outlines solutions to advance housing as a public good. The release comes on the heels of the latest Consumer Price Index (CPI) report: prices went up 8.5% year over year in July and rents rose 6.3% from July 2021 to July 2022, the highest rate in over 35 years. Stable housing is an essential part of families’ eco nomic security & a critical part of a healthy, sustainable economy. Through critical analysis and historical examina tion, the paper unravels the housing crisis in this country, its disproportionate impact on women of color, and its roots in centuries of underinvestment and racist, sexist, and ableist policies that helped white men build wealth while stripping wealth from women, people of color, and people with disabilities.
Frito-Lay Invests $500,000 in Scholarship Program with the United Negro College Fund to Provide College Education for Black and Hispanic Students
Frito-Lay today announced a partnership with the United Ne gro College Fund (UNCF) that will further enable Black and Hispanic students across 10 U.S. cities to attend college. The snack leader is investing $500,000 in need-based scholar ships to help reduce the financial barriers of attending and graduating college. Students are encouraged to apply beginning now and until sub missions close Thursday, Sept. 29th. The scholarship will be accessi ble to students in Atlanta, Chicago, Dallas, Detroit, Houston, Los Angeles, Orlando, Phoenix, San Francisco and Washington, D.C.

“We’re thrilled to partner with Frito-Lay to support underrepresented groups in the com munities that we call home,” said Maurice E. Jenkins, Jr., executive vice president and chief development officer, UNCF.
“It is time for student borrowers to stop shouldering the burden from ITT’s years of lies and false promises,” said U.S. Secretary of Education Miguel Cardona. “The evidence shows that for years, ITT’s leaders intentionally misled students about the quality of their programs in order to profit off federal student loan programs, with no regard for the hardship this would cause. The Biden-Harris Administration will continue to stand up for borrowers who’ve been cheated by their colleges, while working to strengthen oversight and enforcement to protect today’s students from similar deception and abuse.”The Department also announced that it formally notified DeVry University (DeVry), that it is required to pay millions of dollars for approved borrower defense applications. DeVry can submit information and arguments for why it should not be required to pay these liabilities or request a hearing before the Department’s Office of Hearings and Appeals.

Women – particularly women of color – were already more likely than white non-Hispanic men to spend the majority of their income on housing before the pandemic. Black and Latina women have consistently been more likely than white, non-Hispanic men to be behind on rent and mortgage payments throughout the COVID-19“Stablepandemic.housingis an essential part of families’ economic security – and a critical part of a healthy, sustainable economy,” said Dr. Rakeen Mabud, chief economist and managing director of policy and research at Groundwork. “Policymakers must use every available tool to address the acute crisis that so many women and families are facing today.”

Finally, the Department announced the approval of discharges for just under 100 borrowers who enrolled in the Medical As sistant or Medical Billing & Coding Program at Kaplan Career Institute’s Kenmore Square location in Massachusetts from July 1, 2011 to February 16, 2012 when the institution stopped enrolling new students. These are borrowers identified by Massachusetts Attorney General Maura Healey after an investigation found that the institution repeatedly lied about its job placement rates to borrowers, among other deceptive practices. The location closed in February 2013.

The Illinois Attorney General’s office has long been a national leader in investigating and enforcing consumer protection violations in the higher education field. Since entering office, Attorney General Raoul has secured over $160 million in relief for Illinois borrowers who were deceived by their school, private lender, or servicer. Earlier this year, Raoul’s office announced a $1.85 billion national settlement with Navient, formerly the nation’s second largest student loan servicer. Last year, Attorney General Raoul’s office initiated and worked to pass “Know Before You Owe,” to alert borrowers of their remaining federal student loan eligibility to help them steer clear of predatory private loans. Raoul has also overseen the rollout of the state’s first Student Loan Ombudsman, a position created by the Student Loan Servicing Rights Act, to provide resources for student borrowers who are struggling to make student loan payments.

“Under ED’s proposed regulations, borrowers who have been victimized by their schools will be able to obtain critical relief, predatory schools will bear the consequences of their misconduct, and public servants will finally have a clearer path to loan forgiveness. We appreciate the care with which ED has undertaken this essential rulemaking process and look forward to working as partners to support and protect borrowers,” the comments state.
California Attorney General Rob Bonta and Massachusetts Attorney General Maura Healey joined Raoul in leading the co alition. Joining them in filing the comments are attorneys general from Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, the District of Columbia, Michigan, Minnesota, Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, Oregon, Rhode Island, Vermont, Wash ington and Wisconsin, as well as the State of Hawaii Office of ConsumerStudentProtection.borrowers who have questions or are in need of help can call the Attorney General’s Student Loan Helpline at 1-800455-2456. Borrowers can file complaints against their student loan servicer at the Illinois Attorney General’s website.
The Borrower Defense Rule was intended to hold abu sive higher education institutions accountable for cheating students and taxpayers out of billions of dollars in federal loans and to provide loan relief for borrowers who were misled by their schools. Under the previous administration, attorneys general sued the department for gutting the rule and replacing it with a wholly inadequate regulation that benefited predatory schools at the expense of victimized borrowers.Raoul and the coalition commend the department for undoing the harm caused to borrowers by the prior admin istration’s unlawful rule by proposing a more equitable and streamlined process.
Chicago — Attorney General Kwame Raoul co-led a coalition of 20 attorneys generals in commending the U.S. Department of Education for its far-reaching proposed reg ulatory reforms and in urging the department to adopt additional improvements to achieve equitable and transparent relief for student borrowers. The coalition submitted public comments to Education Secretary Miguel Cardona, sup porting the department’s proposed changes to its Borrower Defense, Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF) and Closed School Discharge regulations, while recommending additional changes to further benefit borrowers.
In particular, the coalition commends the department’s decision to reinstitute provisions that limit schools’ use of binding predispute arbitration agreements and class action waivers, increase the department’s ability to hold predatory schools financially accountable for the costs of their misconduct and provide a basis to expand borrower relief. These proposed regulatory changes are es sential to ensuring that students have access to critical relief and that students and taxpayers are no longer left holding the bag for predatory schools’ misconduct.
To further strengthen the proposed regulations’ ability to fully protect borrowers and taxpayers, the coalition urges the department to bolster and clarify the presumption of full relief for borrowers with meritorious claims, to allow states and individuals to raise claims under state law and based on state attorney general actions in the first instance, and to ensure that borrowers with pending claims are protected from financial harm.
The letter also applauds the department for undertaking rulemaking to create formal fixes to the problems that have plagued the administration of the PSLF program. The pro posed regulations would expand the definition of qualifying payments and create a formal reconsideration process. The coalition urges the department to further increase the scope of individuals who qualify for relief and to automate the PSLF process as much as possible, pointing to the perva sive loan servicer misconduct that has imperiled loan relief for borrowers across the country
HELP STUDENTS RECEIVE LOAN RELIEF
RAOUL COMMENDS OF EDUCATION FOR PROPOSED REGULATIONS AND URGES FURTHER CHANGES TO
“I commend the U.S. Department of Education for making important reforms to protect student borrowers and taxpayers from predatory schools,” said Raoul. “Today, we are calling on the department to strengthen and clarify some of these changes to ensure equitable relief for students in Illinois and across the country.”

Strangers In The Night Toronto takes place at the Cabana Pool Bar and Rebel Entertainment Complex. The event will mark the first time The Jacksons have performed in Toronto since 2017. During their long-await ed return performance, the international superstars will delight the audience with their classic songs and choreog raphy.
The group of young singers from the Motor City gained national atten tion when they won the Golden Buzzer and reached second place on NBC’s “America’s Got Talent” in 2019, as well as with their rendition of “Glory” in 2020 calling for racial equality in the wake of the murder of George Floyd.
As kids everywhere return to school, the Detroit Youth Choir today released their own take on the song made famous by Guns N’ Roses to call for continued progress in the wake of recent tragedies in Uvalde, Oxford, Highland Park, and Buffalo. Over 50 Choir members aged between 8-18 years old, under the leadership of Artistic Director Anthony T. White contrib uted to this new arrangement of “Sweet Child O’ Mine” which was created by Grammy Award winning producer Gerard Smerek from Yessian Music, and creative agency Imagination, the team behind the Detroit Youth Choir’s 2020 anthem: “Glory.”
According to the Masons, “Our inspiration is a combination of the personal pain that we endure every day; a pain so deep that we couldn’t write about it directly, so we combined that pain with current events. Therefore, creating an alternative universe (Accountability: The Book of Caleb) that mimicked our pain and loss, but most importantly, it gave us a way to move Accountabilityforward.”isa page-turner that examines ordinary, hard-working Americans. It also forces readers to look within and consider the monster they feed, as it will undoubtedly feed on them one day. Furthermore, be fore reading Accountability’s final page, the reader will be made to realize that one of the novel’s many characters is themselves. For more information, visit https://perlboypublishing.com or www.barnesandnoble.com/w/accountability-joni-mason/1140942934.https://
Alistair Wilson, Managing Director of Imagination said; “We continue to be incredibly inspired by this young group of talented change makers from Detroit. Their view of the future is one we all want to live in. We hope our collab oration to lift up their voices inspires others to continue the necessary work to find solutions that make our schools and our communities safer from gun violence.”
The song choice was inspired by the story of Layla Salazar, age 11, who was one of the nineteen children and two teachers tragically killed at Robb Elementary in Uvalde, Texas. Each morning as her Dad Vinnie Salazar drove Layla to school in his truck, they would sing-along together to “Sweet Child O’ Mine,” by Guns N’ Roses. The song, Layla’s father wrote on Facebook, was the only thing bringing him peace right now.
Layla’s father Vinnie gave permission for her image to be used in the video that accompanies the recording and has shared his appreciation to the choir for theirGerardefforts.Smerek, Executive Producer from Yessian said; “Sweet Child O’Mine is an iconic American Anthem that evokes the most precious childhood memories: Where everything was as fresh as the bright blue sky. This arrangement is one of hope. Hope that we can honor the victims of gun violence by remembering the light they shone on the world. And a message of hope delivered by the youth of America that we can all continue to work together to find solutions to prevent future tragedies. As Matthew McCo naughey so perfectly said in his address at the White House, to honor the victims, “we start by making the loss of these lives matter.”
While attendees enjoy the evening, they can feel good about contributing to life-changing charitable work that supports children in Canada and around the world. The four charities benefitting are: Children Believe, a charity that has worked globally for over 60 years to empower children to dream fearless ly. It is driven by a common belief: creating access to education, inside and outside of the classroom, is the most powerful tool children can use to change their world.

Blending Past and Present Striking a balance between old and new can take many forms, as these styles show: • Heritage Revival: An interest in reviving the past is evident in design trends like a remerging appreciation of antiques and vintage elements, such oversized furniture and traditional shapes. To capture this style, your design should focus on contrasting old and new for a mix-and-match look. Ultimately, the aesthetic is a look that feels simultaneously individualistic and curated. A cohesive color scheme can allow the various elements to stand on their own while working in harmony for an intentional design. For example, the HGTV Home by Sher win-Williams 2023 Color Collection of the Year includes a combination of familiar tones that have been thoughtfully curated by design experts who borrow color and design concepts from the past for a hopeful future and a sense of belonging. Hues like Poetry Plum and Hot Cocoa evoke warmth and depth, while moderate shades like Restrained Gold and Glamour offer fresh ways to incorporate mid-range neutrals. Meanwhile, soft tones like Natural Linen and Cool Beige offer subtle color for lighter, brighter spaces.
In the world of design, what’s old inevitably becomes new again, and a similar pattern is inspir ing today’s on-trend color palettes for home decor. The latest styles reflect reviving and comforting colors influenced by heritage and romance, lending to a look that is familiar in an individualistic way. With more people living their everyday, working lives at home, many homeowners are discovering the contentment that comes with slowing down. Often that means looking to the past to find comfort for moving forward. Nostalgia serves as an emotional tool that delivers deep-rooted serenity and powerful healing properties. Look ing to the past is often beneficial during times of uncertainty and can be an opportunity to bring styles and practices back to the present to create an appreciation of the past. Whether living through the romance of rural lifestyles, the comfort of home or the nostalgia from far-off times, some of today’s most beloved design aesthetics celebrate the past, present and future while bringing balance, hope and comfort for you and your family to embrace.

“These updated guidelines help ensure a Princess vacation is available to everyone,” said John Padgett, president of Princess Cruises. “The Princess experience is truly one-of-a-kind and we encourage everyone to take a Princess vacation that offers amazing service at unmatched value.”The updated guidelines are subject to the local regulations of applicable home ports and destinations. The award-winning innovation offers the fastest way to an effortless personalized vacation, giving guests more time to do the things they love most. The company is part of Carnival Corporation & plc (NYSE/ LSE: CCL; NYSE:CUK).
“We have previously disclosed strong occupancy projec tions for the summer, and our bookings through the end of 2022 have also been very solid,” said Christine Duffy, presi dent of Carnival Cruise Line. “With the further alignment of protocols to other vacation choices, our guests are booking the remaining 2022 inventory, and getting a head start plan ning for 2023. Mid-August is typically not a busy month for cruise bookings, but it’s clear that pent-up demand for Carnival has not been satisfied and guests are responding very favorably to our updated protocols.”

Duffy reiterated that Carnival remains committed to the health and safety of guests, crew, and the communities it visits, and will continue to work with medical experts and public health officials to refine its protocols responsibly.
