This state is in so much financial trouble! Rauner will not sign a budget. He wants unions to give up their rights. He wants us to be a right to work state. He is a billionaire who purchased his election, and he is hurting the poorest among us.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?

This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.

As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
