SPRINGFIELD, Ill. (WAND) - A piece of legislation from Rep. Rodney Davis (R-Taylorville) that would make the site of the 1908 Springfield Race Riots nationally recognized has moved forward in the U.S. House of Representatives.Â
On Monday, Davis was able to secure funding for a study required to determine whether or not the site should be added to the National Park System.
President of the NAACP chapter in Springfield, Teresa Hayley, said this is a project she and Davis have been working on for years. Pretty much since they discovered there were additional houses burnt down at that site, Rodney and I have worked hard to make sure Springfield was recognized for the 1908 Race Riots, Hayley said.

Gov. JB Pritzker said Thursday he still does not know why the federal government is shipping out about half the coronavirus vaccine doses that were expected.
“They have not provided us with any information,” Pritzker said during a wide-ranging news conference. “We get to see what the ‘order book’ can look like for us for the coming week, and they haven’t given us any explanation for why those numbers are smaller than they were before.”
The state reported 181 more deaths, a number too high for Pritzker to be pleased about the lack of a post-Thanksgiving surge. The state reported 8,828 new coronavirus cases.
