briefly HARPER JOINS LEGISLATOR DELEGATION TO FARM AID FESTIVAL

NOBLESVILLE, Ind. – State Rep. Sonya M. Harper, D-Chicago, was one of a group of legislators from five states to gather at Farm Aid 2023, an annual music and food festival. Also in attendance were more than 200 farmers, fishermen and advocates with whom Harper and the other legislators engaged in tours and discussions centered on farm issues and policy in the Midwest and throughout the U.S. “Agriculture is and has always been the foundation of societies and economies across the globe and policies that govern it are vital,” Harper said. “In Illinois, around 75% of our total land area is under cultivation making agriculture by far our largest industry. That’s why opportunities like this, to learn more about advancements in the science and practice of agriculture, are so valuable.”

Harper is widely known in Springfield as a tireless advocate whose focus on food quality, nutrition, healthy food access and agricultural issues makes her one of the most influential voices on these topics in the state of Illinois. She chairs the House Agriculture and Conservation Committee in the Illinois General Assembly.

The legislative delegation to Farm Aid was organized by State Innovation Exchange (SiX), a nonpartisan advocacy group that supports state legislators who pursue novel and inventive policies. Harper spoke on a panel alongside musician Nathaniel Rateliff and farmer Greg Gunthorp about ways state legislatures and Congress can better support family farmers and food insecure residents.

ATTORNEY GENERAL RAOUL LEADS COALITION SUPPORTING EPA’S PROPOSAL TO STRENGTHEN DUST-LEAD REGULATIONS

Proposed Regulations Could Reduce Adverse Health Effects in Low-Income Communities Chicago – Attorney General Kwame Raoul led a coalition of 13 attorneys general supporting the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) proposal to strengthen dust-lead hazard standards and post-abatement clearance levels, as authorized by the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA).

In a comment letter, Raoul and the coalition strongly support the EPA’s efforts to strengthen its dust-lead hazard standards and clearance levels, two important regulations that help protect the public against dangerous dust-lead and lead paint exposures. These stronger regulations are especially important for environmental justice communities, such as low-income communities and communities of color, that currently bear a disproportionate burden from exposure to lead.

The letter explains the EPA’s proposed regulations recognize the scientific studies showing that there is no safe level of lead exposure and, if adopted, will reduce the associated adverse health effects. Even very low levels of lead exposure can lead to serious health effects. For example, lead exposure is associated with delayed growth and lower academic performance in young children.

In the letter, Raoul and the attorneys general highlight a recent lead surveillance report from the Illinois Department of Public Health that shows Illinois children in high-risk zip codes are twice as likely to have elevated blood-lead levels compared to children in low-risk zip codes. More specifically, the letter explains that Black or African American children in Illinois are also disproportionately affected by lead exposure, suffering from higher blood-lead levels than any other tested race group in Illinois.

Raoul and the coalition also urge the EPA to address lead in soil and how lead paint is defined, which is essential to holistically reducing health impacts of lead exposure.

Joining Raoul in sending the letter are attorneys general of California, Delaware, the District of Columbia, Hawaii, Maryland, Massachusetts

Giannoulias Recommends Increasing Requirement for Drive Tests from 75 to 79 Secretary of State Alexi Giannoulias released a report today that recommends adjusting the age requirement for mandatory driving tests from 75 to 79, making Illinois more consistent with other states.

For the past dozen years, Illinois has been the only state in the nation that requires senior drivers to have their behind-the-wheel skills tested on a regular basis. The last two states that mandated driving tests for seniors did away with them in 2011 (New Hampshire) and 2005 (Indiana).

“As Secretary of State, road safety is a top priority of mine,” Giannoulias said. “Statistics show that seniors are among the safest drivers of any age category. This change would make Illinois driving standards for senior drivers more consistent compared to other states while keeping Illinois as one of the strictest states for license renewals.”

Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT) statistics in 2022 included a full year of data relating to the emergency rule that raised the age to 79. IDOT reported virtually no change in crash rates for drivers 75 and older, with a crash rate of 24.39 per 1,000 drivers, which is lower than every age range of drivers between 16 and 69 years old.

“AARP applauds Secretary Giannoulias’ recommen-

dation to permanently reduce the number of older drivers subject to age-based license renewals,” said Ryan Gruenenfelder, Senior Manager of Outreach and Advocacy for AARP Illinois. “Though AARP maintains age alone is not determinative of driving performance, this is a step in the right direction. We look forward to continuing to work with Secretary Giannoulias to identify policy solutions that assess all drivers’ ability to be safe on the road.”

During the COVID-19 pandemic, the Illinois General Assembly passed a measure modifying driver requirements in response to the unprecedented public health crisis. The act temporarily raised the age of driving tests from 75 to 79 and was scheduled to expire on January 1, 2023. Lawmakers extended the act to October 1, 2023, and requested the Secretary of State’s office recommend whether the age increase should be made permanent.

There are more than 9.1 million licensed drivers in Illinois. Of those, approximately 280,000 individuals are between the ages of 75 and 78, or 3% of the driving population – who would be impacted by the permanent implementation of this legislation.

In neighboring Wisconsin, where there are no require-

sessor’s Office will present information about how to understand their reassessment notice and explain how values are determined,” said Rich Township Assessor Sam Brown.

“The workshops will provide an opportunity to determine if an appeal should be filed, an overview of the online application, and teach homeowners about available property tax savings.”

Appeals for Rich Township can be filed until Monday, Oct. 23.

View all our events at www. cookcountyassessor.com/event-list.

The Assessor’s Office reassesses one-third of the county every year.

In 2023, the south and west suburbs of Cook County are undergoing reassessment. Municipalities that are part of or partially in Rich Township are Country Club Hills, Flossmoor, Hazel Crest, Homewood, Matteson, Olympia Fields, Park Forest, Richton Park, Tinley Park, and University Park.

When a property is reassessed, the property owner is mailed a reassessment notice. The reassessment notice reflects the estimated fair market value based on sales of similar properties over the past three years. The notice also contains important information such as the property’s characteristics, neighborhood code, and past assessments.

An increase in a property’s assessment does not cause the same increase in the property owner’s taxes.

After a township undergoes reassessment, a valuation report is released that provides details on residential, commercial, and multi-family reassessments. Property owners can use these reports to gain insight on how property assessments work, learn about the real estate market in their specific neighborhood, and compare the

median to their property value. The Valuation Reports for Rich Township can be found at: cookcountyassessor. com/valuation-reports.

How do assessment appeals work? Property owners are given an opportunity to appeal their assessment if the property characteristics listed on an assessment notice are incorrect, or if the estimated market value of a property is significantly more than what it could sell for in the current real estate market.

Residential Properties Residential assessments are based on recent sale prices of similar properties. To get a better picture of the real estate market in Rich Township, the chart above demonstrates median sale prices over the last five years.

The median sale price in 2022 for single-family homes was $196K, $148K for condos, and $325K for small apartment buildings. The Assessor’s median market value estimate for single-family homes is $207K, for condos $127K, and $345K for small apartment buildings.

Commercial Properties Commercial property assessments are calculated by determining a property’s use, estimated income, market-level vacancy, collections loss, and expenses. Applicable real estate operating expenses include property taxes, insurance, repair and maintenance costs, and property management fees. The varying property tax rates throughout the south and west suburbs were accounted for in operating expense ratios.

To learn more about how commercial reassessments work, read the full Commercial Valuation Report.

Commercial and multifamily property owners can go a step further and locate their property on a methodology worksheet that contains the data used to assess their property.

ments specifically geared toward older drivers, all drivers are required to renew their licenses every eight years and are not required to take a driving test, regardless of age. Crash rates among senior drivers there are nearly identical to those in Illinois.

The act regarding the change only pertained to drivers 75 to 78 required to take the driving tests. Current Illinois law would remain unchanged when it comes to renewing drivers for other age groups: All drivers below the age of 81 must renew their licenses every four years.

Drivers aged 79 and 80 must take a vision and driving test (if their fouryear renewal is up during this time

period).

Drivers aged 81 to 86 must take a vision and driving test every two years.

Drivers aged 87 and older must take a vision and driving test every year.

Giannoulias is urging the state to adopt the rules immediately so seniors would not have to take driving tests after the October 1 deadline and before the requirements are made permanent.

He added that the Secretary of State’s office will continue to monitor state driving laws and advocate for changes as long as our roadways remain safe and Illinois drivers, pedestrians and cyclists are protected.

HUNTER RESPONDS TO STATE AGENCY TRANSITIONS CHICAGO — State Senator Mattie Hunter (D-Chicago) issued the following statement in response to several upcoming changes in state agency leadership: “I commend Governor Pritzker for ushering in new leadership to the Department of Healthcare and Family Services, the Department on Aging, and the Department of Children and Family Services.

These transitions signal a fresh chapter in the state’s commitment to serving the people of Illinois and addressing the critical issues at hand.

“I would like to express my appreciation to outgoing directors Theresa Eagleson, Paula Basta and Marc Smith for their years of service and dedication. I look forward to working with new leadership to ensure Illinoisans, especially our most vulnerable populations, receive the support they need.”

SIMS ANNOUNCES COMMUNITY REVITALIZATION FUNDING CHICAGO – State Senator Elgie R. Sims, Jr. announced that a combined total of $1.6 million is coming to local communities to support revitalization efforts “Investing in affordable housing uplifts our community and boosts our local economy,” said Sims (D-Chicago). “We are taking strong strides toward revitalization and attracting investments in the communities that need it most. All Illinoisans deserve sustainable, livable housing options.”

The Illinois Housing Development Authority recently approved $19 million to support affordable housing and community revitalization efforts across Illinois. Awarded under the Strong Communities Program, the initiative will provide funding to 68 units of local governments and land bank authorities for the acquisition, maintenance, rehabilitation and demolition of abandoned residential properties in their communities. The program is designed to support local revitalization efforts and attract further investment in communities that may lack the resources needed to tackle vacant, abandoned and deteriorated properties.

THE SECOND ROUND OF STRONG COMMUNITIES PROGRAM AWARDEES INCLUDE: · Cook County Land Bank Authority: $562,000 · South Suburban Land Bank and Development: $562,000 · Village of Hopkins Park: $195,000 · Sauk Village: $337,000 “Vacant and abandoned properties continue to be a strain on local budgets and resources in communities throughout Illinois, which is why IHDA created the Strong Communities Program to assist local governments with their neighborhood revitalization efforts,” said IHDA Executive Director Kristin Faust. “Through the Strong Communities Program, IHDA seeks to help communities transform these properties back into positive, revenue-generating assets for neighborhoods.”

The grants are funded by the Rebuild Illinois capital plan and will leverage IHDA’s existing funding to increase property values, create jobs, help reduce crime, generate additional tax revenue and attract further community investment in underserved communities around the state. A total of $30 million in grant funding has been awarded through two application rounds.

Tips to Get Ahead of Holiday Debt as Nov. 1, so do some homework now on the gifts you have your eye on so you can spot and take advantage of online and in-person deals before the holiday rush.

SPONSORED CONTENT BY JPMORGAN CHASE & CO.

Pick up a short-term gig

The holiday season is fast approaching, and most people find themselves spending a little – or a lot – more than usual during these festive final months of the year.

Americans spend more than $1,450 each year on holiday-related purchases – from gifts and travel to decorations and entertainment. These costs layered into your monthly expenses can significantly strain your budget.

You don’t have to break the bank to celebrate the season. Smart planning can get you ahead of the holidays and leave you with funds for merrymaking the way you want. Consider these five tips to minimize holiday debt. your budget. With so much pressure surrounding giftgiving, it’s easy to spend more than you planned. Shop online to ensure you’re getting the best deal, or search for coupons and deals to help lower costs. Get family and friends on board with your plans by suggesting a gift swap instead of buying gifts for everyone; opt for handmade gifts or even pitch in for a group gift. If you’re hosting a holiday dinner, shop in bulk for food items.

Save, save, save

While solid advice for any time of year, it can take on more importance during the holidays. One way to save is to set up a separate savings account for holiday expenses.

Start saving at the beginning of the year, and vow not to withdraw any money until it’s time for holiday shopping.

Make your holiday plans now

Set guidelines for your holiday spending. Make a list of your expected holiday expenses and estimate the costs to see if they fit into your overall budget. Adjust your list as needed.

Scope out major deal days

In addition to the deal-hunting tips above, take advantage of Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales. Look up retailers’ deals ahead of time to see if you find goods and services you planned to purchase anyway at lower prices. Many retailers start big holiday sales as soon

Build a holiday budget—then stick to it

Once you’ve made your list, commit to staying within

Even the best-laid budget plans can still fall short of your available funds. If your schedule allows it, take on a temporary job to bring in some extra income.

Many retail or dining establishments need additional workers to handle the holiday rush, and demand often increases for ride-booking and delivery services as well.

Or take up a side hustle selling crafts for example.

These are just a few ways to help you get a handle on holiday debt, but there’s so much more that savvy consumers can do to save. See if your credit cards have special offers at your favorite stores or for your favorite purchases, and look for special cash back deals. Be flexible and keep an open mind in general – if you can’t get a good deal on the gifts you originally planned to buy, see if any of the special offers you qualify for might be good substitutes.

The bottom line

Putting financial parameters in place can help you feel more confident and less stressed about your holiday spending. Have fun with your planning, saving and budgeting – it’s a great way to get into the holiday spirit early.

The collection features durable, high-quality fabrics with the majority made from more sustainably sourced materials, including recycled polyester and Tencel.

“This season the design team was inspired by horror-movie heroines whose style always stays sophisticated, no matter how spooky the circumstances. We wanted to channel that pulled-together look with pieces that confer polish but are practical enough to transition effortlessly between situations and seasons,” said Linda Wikell, Concept Designer at H&M Studio.

H&M Studio is H&M’s most directional, fashion-forward offering. Launched in 2013, the biannual collections are developed in-house by a dedicated design team at the brand’s Stockholm atelier. The A/W23 collection marks 10 years of H&M Studio, and a new chapter for the limited-edition collections. In a newly expanded remit, from this season H&M Studio will comprise a creative framework that encompasses multiple limited-edition collections per year, with several drops per season.

Spotlighting Our Hero Mr. Dad’s Father’s Club What began as Joseph Williams reading to his daughter’s class at her school, became a movement to get fathers involved in their children’s lives.

Williams started Mr. Dad’s Father’s Club in 2017. It was an outlet for him. He began helping out at the school doing lunchroom duty and hallway monitoring. He built a respect level with the children at the school. He wanted to tap into his children’s lives through volunteering.

“That’s why I always tell people, my kids saved my life. And, that’s why it’s so important for this work to happen because other fathers, they love their babies and they want to be in their kids lives, they just don’t know how sometimes,” Williams said.

Every week, Williams would read books to his daughter’s class.

When fathers started to come to the school to pick up their children, they wanted to get involved with reading books to the students. Before he knew it, there were 150 fathers reading books to students and assisting with events at the school.

Williams wanted to turn that momentum into something and decided to start Mr. Dad’s Father’s Club as a nonprofit. He became more intentional with reading books that were focused on social emotional learning. He wanted to boost the confidence in the students he was reading to.

At the school, the faculty and staff saw a change in the students’ behavior. Williams started to bring in men from different backgrounds, doctors, lawyers and judges and have them read to the students. One of Mr. Dad’s Father’s Club frequent guest readers is Circuit Court of Cook County Judge David L. Kelly. Williams’ hope is that having students see men from different backgrounds will inspire the children to pursue those careers. Police officers have also come into read to the students, which Williams was hoping is a way to build relationships between the students and the police.

With Mr. Dad’s Father’s Club, the literacy component is for the students grades pre-k to third grade. From fourth to twelfth grade, students receive mentoring. The mentoring ranges from one-on-one mentoring to group support. He also has speakers come in to speak to the students on topics from bullying to entrepreneurship. His goal was to open up the students’ minds to receive knowledge that can help them as they grow up. Three years ago, a fatherhood component was created.

That group meets once a week, they talk about life, child support, custody, how to be in their children’s lives and they receive mentorship.

“The main thing I love doing with them is sending them out on trips. We’ll send the fathers with their kids skating, to the White Sox game, to the WNBA games, just sending them around so they can have those experiences,” Williams said.

Mr. Dad’s Father’s Club also send fathers to museums and the zoos with their children. Williams said that a lot of times, the fathers think they need money to spend time with their children. But, there are opportunities for them to spend time with their children with little to no cost to them. Williams also makes sure the fathers know about different resources that are available.

All of it feels good for Williams to do. Mr. Dad’s Father’s Club is currently in 11 schools. He wants to expand the program to all the schools on the South side first, then going to the West side. He also wants to be able to pay the fathers who volunteer to read to the students in the schools.

When Mr. Dad’s Father’s Club first started, Williams had to recruit fathers at the different schools. Principals have been reaching out to him and asking him to bring the program to their school. And, they also have the fathers who want to volunteer. The students also love Mr. Dad, the mascot of Mr. Dad’s Father’s Club that goes into the school.

Williams said doing this work is serious to him. Growing up, he wanted the guidance of a man. He decided he was going to be the kind of father that was in his children’s lives and in the lives of other children. He went through a lot to get the organization off the ground and he is glad that it is growing and thriving.

“I ain’t perfect, but I work my hardest to do the best I can do for my community and for these babies and to walk a straight line,” he said.

Mr. Dad’s Father’s Club participates in about 10 events throughout the year. Williams wants people to have experiences that might not have otherwise. He has hosted pumpkin patches and outdoor camping. He also wants to have space that can be activated for events.

RAIN-E MAKES HER GRAND DEBUT TO MUSIC WITH ‘BIG SPENDA’ CHICAGO – The city of Chicago, and indeed the entire Midwest region of the U.S., have always enjoyed a rich and diverse heritage when it comes to its hard-earned identity as the “mid coast”—the center of the art and culture of HipHop. Ranging from inspired, impactful musical expressions incorporating lyricism, rhyming, deejaying and stage presence, the “second city” is truly second to none as among those who know, as great female rap artists continue to be consistently bred and launched to success from here.

The obviously best-known female Chicago emcees include a broad diversity of names and styles, ranging from Da Brat, Shawnna, Noname and Dreezy, to Lady XO, Queen Key and more. But today, another name to be added to that distinguished list is that of fast-rising artist RAIN-E (pronounced Ray-Knee), whose new track “Big Spenda” is now in full release and available on all streaming platforms nationwide.

RAIN-E, a proud windy city native, wants women to feel empowered and uplifted by her work and proudly reps her hometown with refreshingly substantive and confident lyricism. RAINE’s powerful message of honesty, candor, pride and independence comes through loud and clear in “Big Spenda,” an anthem that she expects will resoundingly resonate with audiences of women who enjoy Hip-Hop. And, just whom is she talking about here? Well, defiant, yet bold and unashamedly feminine women just like RAIN-E herself. “I love it when a man pursues, pampers and spoils a woman that he admires,” she says. “I believe that all

women can benefit from having a ‘Big Spenda/Big Tipper’ in their lives—someone who cherishes them and isn’t modest about letting others know how much they care for them. A ‘Big Spenda’ is always in a good woman’s corner,” RAIN-E adds.

“The women I’m speaking to with this song are the living example of the woman Teddy Riley and Blackstreet used to sing about in unforgettable tracks like ‘No Diggity.’

She’s that classy, smart playette that all of the men are checking for and want to spoil, but they must come correct with her, though.”

“Big Spenda’s” arrival rings as a Hip-Hop 50th Anniversary nod to the female emcees of lore, revisiting the original fun and braggadocio of the genre, but adding ample doses of sexiness and substance. RAIN-E’s no-nonsense Midwestern sensibility shines through in abundance on the track, staying true to her roots and doing both her city and rap peers justice, and it’s not by accident.

“People usually think of the East and West coasts first when it comes to rap, but Chicago, music-wise, is known more for Blues and Gospel artists, and House music. Given its increasing crime headlines and the flight of the Black middle-class population in recent years, I want folks to remember that great things still come from Chicago,” RAIN-E relates. “Chicago, with one of the nation’s largest concentrations of Black residents—has been a capital city for Black millionaires and businesses for generations. It was once the epitome of Black wealth, style and sophistication. I want to

represent that legacy of Chicago in my music and bring it back to the fore.”

To achieve this objective, RAIN-E’s vision for the near future is to capture the momentum of “Big Spenda” and leverage it to complete a forthcoming EP. She also has the launch of high-end apparel and merchandise under the brands “I RAINE SUPREEM” and “Wrist-on-Lit” bracelets” in the planning stages. Each of these extensions to her music are the facets of an identity that she has been carefully and patiently crafting.

“My goal is to appeal to an audience who still loves their baddies, even without as many bad words.” Far from the more overtly sexual nature of most modern women rappers, RAIN-E reminds everyone that there are many more layers to her appeal. She aims to fill a lane for female rappers that don’t only revolve around sexuality or the streets, focusing instead on verbal charisma, female empowerment, and independence.

“Big Spenda” is available for listen and download now on Spotify, SoundCloud, Apple Music and other streaming music platforms such as Amazon Prime, YouTube, Tidal and others.

For more information about RAIN-E and the new single, “Big Spenda,” visit and follow her on her Facebook, Instagram and Twitter/X channels. There’s also a deejay pack available for radio and online radio air personalities’ use, which can be accessed using the link at left.
