On Wednesday afternoon, following the Bears’ organized team activity practice at Halas Hall, Dalton made it clear his focus and mindset didn’t change on the last weekend of April, when Justin Fields entered the picture. Yes, Fields immediately claimed the title of “franchise quarterback of the future” when he was selected with the No. 11 pick. But Dalton is locked in right now as the Bears’ steady veteran starter, responsible for playing at a level high enough that the team can oversee Fields’ development at a reasonable pace.
The new initiative — which is arriving five years after Jackson created the Office of Student Protections and Title IX, aims to ensure every CPS school offers students and educators equitable, inclusive and safe learning and working environments that are free from sexual harassment and misconduct and discrimination based on race, ability, sex and gender, officials said.

Each state is given a score out of 100 points that is calculated on the basis of 20 economic, legislative and cultural indicators of LGBTQ climate and inclusiveness in five categories: legal and nondiscrimination protections, youth and family support, political and religious attitudes, health access and safety, and work environment and employment. The categories assessed, for example, whether states had gender markers on birth certificates, the frequency of hate crimes, unemployment rates, anti-discrimination protections, and public health measures such as food security, wage gaps, mental wellness and access to gender-affirming medical care.
“Nick is a true pro and understands it, (he) is still very competitive,” Nagy said. “In all these meetings, it’s just really special to see how they’re trying to help Justin out and teach him how to play quarterback and how to watch film and study this offense. But also Justin helping them, too, with what he sees, so it’s been really good.”

“This pandemic isn’t over, and there are many, many people who have not been vaccinated yet,” the governor said today. “I talked a little bit about the fact that more than two-thirds of people in Illinois have been vaccinated, but that leaves a third and we are not at herd immunity, where we need to get to. So we’re doing everything at the state level to try to incentivize people to go get vaccinated. Many companies have offered incentives to people, to get them vaccinated. People are beginning to take us up on those. We have, as you know, tickets — free tickets, for people who want to go to Six Flags Great America. We have now a beer and a shot or a shot and a shot for the rest of us and lots of other incentives coming, including potentially a vaccine lottery.”
