GUEBERT: Lawmakers must find a bipartisan way forward

For many years, I have heard that agriculture policy is one of the few areas in Springfield and in Washington, D.C., that is truly bipartisan. Members of both political parties recognize the need for good farm and food policy. It is my hope this continues, but I am increasingly disappointed by the lack of civility and level of disrespect occurring in today’s politics. I’m concerned that party leadership, on both sides of the aisle, is forcing lawmakers to vote exclusively […]

Bipartisan group of lawmakers, advocacy groups push for Illinois fair map amendment

SPRINGFIELD (The Center Square) -- A group of lawmakers from both sides of the aisle and several advocacy groups is turning up the pressure on the Illinois Legislature to pass an amendment to allow voters to change how legislative districts are drawn in Illinois. The goal is to prevent gerrymandering of the state's political boundaries. In Illinois, politicians control how legislative boundaries are drawn every ten years.
