U S Rep Cheri Bustos will complete fifth term before leaving Congress

ROCKFORD  U.S. Rep. Cheri Bustos on Monday laughed off Republican suggestions that she will leave Congress after a decade of service because she is worried she might lose an election. During an interview at the Register Star News Tower, Bustos noted she has won seven straight elections  two for East Moline City Council and five as congresswoman representing the sprawling 17th District, which stretches from south of Peoria to the Quad Cities to parts of Rockford and the state line.  Despite it being an area that leans Republican and voted for Donald Trump, Bustos remains unbeaten. And she will retire undefeated from her congressional career in January 2023 following the completion of her fifth term.

Rockford City Council backs cannabis fund

ROCKFORD  Revenue generated by a 3% tax on the sale of recreational cannabis will be spent in areas of the city disproportionately impacted by marijuana laws, under a resolution approved by the City Council.  Aldermen created a cannabis fund designed to support programs for economic and business development, education, job training and youth programming. “I believe it’s absolutely a good idea,” Alderwoman Venita Hervey, D-5, said. “If we’re going to sell marijuana, then let’s make some of that sales tax money go toward something that can fix some of the harms in the community. It’s a fact that certain communities in every city and in Rockford it was the African American community and, in some aspects, the Latino community were disproportionately hit by law enforcement for cannabis offenses.”
