Arguments Against the Proposed Amendment

FORM OF BALLOT

A fundamental right provided to all citizens under the First Amendment of the United States Constitution is the right to free speech and freedom of association. This amendment prohibits any law or ordinance that allows union workers to choose whether they wish to be a member of the union or not. Under the 2018 United States Supreme Court decision Janus v. Illinois AFSCME, non-union government workers cannot be required to pay union dues as a condition of working in the public sector. Approval of this constitutional amendment will deny that protection to private sector workers. The amendment also states that lawmakers could never "interfere with, negate, or diminish" certain rights. These terms are broad and undefined and leave lawmakers without the ability to clarify through legislation. Our Illinois Constitution provides such protection to public employees. The result of that protection has been to squash efforts by state lawmakers and voters to address Illinois' pension fund deficits.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I hereunto set my hand and affix the Great Seal of the State of Illinois, Done in the City of Springfield, this sixth day of September, 2022.

ARTICLE I — BILL OF RIGHTS

The proposed amendment, which takes effect upon approval by the voters, adds Section 25 to the Bill of Rights Article of the Illinois Constitution. The new section will guarantee workers the fundamental right to organize and to bargain collectively and to negotiate safety conditions, wages, hours, working conditions, and economic welfare. The amendment prohibits the passage of any new law within the State that restricts or prohibits workers from engaging in collective bargaining with their employer over wages, hours, and other terms and conditions of employment, like safety protocols or training.

The Illinois Constitution establishes a structure of government and laws for the State of Illinois. There are three ways to initiate change to the Illinois Constitution: (1) a constitutional convention may propose changes to any part; (2) the General Assembly may propose changes to any part; or (3) a petition initiative may propose amendments limited to structural and procedural subjects contained in the Legislative Article. The people of Illinois must approve any changes to the Illinois Constitution before they become effective. The purpose of this document is to inform you of proposed changes to the Illinois Constitution and to provide you with a brief explanation and a summary of the arguments in favor of and in opposition to the proposed amendment.

IAA Foundation is accept ing applications for the Driv ing Agriculture Forward Scholarship. Cycle Three: For appli cants enrolling in driver training Oct. 1 through Dec. 31. The deadline for consideration is Sept. 30.

Truck drivers are critical for trans porting farm commodities, inputs and food throughout our state and nation. Without truck drivers, the entire sup ply chain weakens. The Driving Agri culture Forward Scholarship Program, funded by the Illinois Farm Bureau, offsets the cost of required commercial truck driver training and ensures more well-trained, safe drivers are available to drive agriculture forward.

Applicants enrolled, or planning to enroll, in a commercial driver training program at an Illinois Community Col lege are encouraged to apply. Five $1,000 scholarships will be awarded every three months and are based on the Illinois Farm Bureau region where the applicant resides.

AMBOY – Perhaps the most intrigu ing fact about the back-and-forth slug fest that Amboy-LaMoille-Ohio and Milledgeville took part in Sept. 9 at The Harbor is that these two top eightman football teams could very well meet once more before the season’s done.The

The Missiles’ lead didn’t last long, as Lindenmeyer connected with Blaine for a TD with 52.7 seconds remaining in the first half. Welchel’s two-point reception put the Clippers up 14-8, and that was the score at half time.The third quarter saw a flurry of touchdowns that gave the game a nipand-tuck feel. Nye tied the game at 14 with 10:01 to go in the quarter, with Konnor Johnson’s two-point reception putting the Missiles up 16-14. Clippers junior Kye Koch punched through a hole in the middle of Missiles’ line for a 65-yard TD run just 12 seconds after Nye’s score to regain the lead at 20-16. Then just 11 seconds after Koch’s TD, Kacen Johnson hauled in a Nye pass for a 60-yard TD, and a second chance at a conversion attempt – after a pen alty on the Clippers – was successful after Nye ran it in for a 24-20 lead.

than us, and I thought it was an even game. They made some great plays where we didn’t tackle when we needed to, so we’re going to figure out how to approach this loss and grow from it week to week.”

“Milledgeville has great pass cover age,” Blaine said. “Tucker gave me some nice throws. It was tough to beat that pass coverage, but I’m glad we could.”Nye rushed for 95 yards on 10 car ries, and was 5-for-18 passing for 134 yards, 111 of them to Kacen Johnson.

“The kids did a great job,” Clippers coach Scott Payne said. “We had some adversity being down 10 in the third quarter, and I told the kids they needed to step up and start making plays, or you can put your heads down and they’ll run away with it. These kids did a great job, they stepped up and made plays, and I’m so proud of all of them.”

The Clippers scored first on a 13-yard touchdown pass from Linden meyer to Vincent Zembrzuski with 5:41 to go in the first quarter for a 6-0

Missiles’ next drive saw them get into Clipper territory, but they were stopped with 3:07 remaining when Lindenmeyer deflected a poten tial fourth-down catch that would have set up a fresh set of downs. The Clippers capitalized on the turnover on downs and got to the Missiles’ 32 before Lindenmeyer marched in for a score on a keeper with 2:23 left to make it 40-36.“We just needed to secure some yards,” Lindenmeyer said. “Nobody was open. I didn’t want to toss the ball up in the air and have it be a 50-50 chance, so it’s either tuck it and run, or do what I can to keep the ball safe, especially in a situation like that.”

advantage. The score came on Linden meyer’s second pass attempt – the first one fell incomplete, but the Clippers moved into the red zone on a pass interference penalty on the Missiles.

Those three touchdowns took place over 6 minutes of real time, and although the rapid scoring subsided a little throughout the rest of the game, it made for a game of survival for both teams.“We didn’t play our best in the first half,” Lindenmeyer said. “We talked about bouncing back from adversity all season long, and how [better things] are going to happen and are going to come. This was the game it came, and we bounced back, came back strong, and pulled it off.”

Lindenmeyer threw for 225 yards on 10-for-17 passing, with Blaine as his most common target for 116 of those yards. Lindenmeyer and Koch com bined for most of the Clippers’ rushes, with 27 carries for 153 yards. Amboy converted only two of its six two-point conversion tries, while the Missiles converted four of their six.

“Our special teams have always been great, and we set up some nice holes,” Johnson said. “It’s really all of the linemen. They get the job done.”

Four incomplete passes were thrown on the Missiles’ final try on offense before turning it over for the Clippers, who ran the clock out.

I thought our defense came up big and we came out on Milledgeville’stop.” late 10-point fourth-quarter lead came after a 42-yard touchdown keeper by junior quarterback Connor Nye. Just two minutes later, Blaine hauled in his sec ond TD reception from 57 yards out to make it a 36-32 game. On the two-point attempt after Blaine’s touchdown, a penalty on the Missiles during an incomplete pass meant the Clippers had one more try at it, and junior Landon Welchel hauled in the conver sion to inch the Clippers closer at 36-34.The

Kacen Johnson also scored on a 16-yard completion in the third quar ter, and Koch scored on a three-yard run toward the end of the period.

Fulton (3-0) led 7-0 after the first quarter, but Du-Pec came back to take a 14-7 lead with 4:33 left before halftime. The Steamers answered with a Ryan Eads 5-yard touch down run with 7:47 left in the third period to take a 17-14 lead, then Brayden Dykstra connected with Baylen Damhoff on a 31-yard scoring strike late in the third to make it 24-22.After the Rivermen scored 6 seconds into the fourth quarter to cut the Fulton lead to 24-22, Lukas Schroeder answered with a 2-yard TD run to stretch the margin back to 31-22. Conner Sheridan’s interception with 1:01 left sealed the victory, which keeps the Steamers tied atop the conference standings with Lena-Winslow.
