The official policy of the Trump Administration is ignorant bigotry. We’re asked, under principles including charity, to assume that people support the administration despite that policy, not specifically because of it. I am increasingly unwilling to extend that charity.

Yes, Chicago region subsidizes roads Downstate! Transit funding change is fair
Chicago keeping a bigger slice of the transportation funding they pay in taxes makes sense.
