My office is in Illinois, and I can personally attest to the large number of people trying to get out. Moreover, when we hire and relocate people, almost all of them choose to live in Indiana. REasons are obvious to those who follow IL news, and I can go into them if anyone is unfamiliar.
I really think we need to pass whatever legislation is needed to re-draw districts only after the 10 year census. I’d like guidance on some kind of non-partisan team to do this and/or some “geometric” limitations. probably a long-shot, and may require a constitutional amendment.

BUt also potentially REALLY STUPID! We shall if it matters or not, but I think this or something similar sure could bite him.

wow, this really concerns me. moving a lot closer to different armed agencies actively at odds. Better ways to resolve policy disputes, plus the persons aren’t here “legally” in the first place.
Sounds like the squeeze is on for various players in the alcoholic beverage market, versus this is truly a California issue. Not saying california doesn’t have issues–my company has two sites in SoCal, and as we do with many states often ask various “what if” questions.
jobs data is interesting against backdrop of WSJ article this morning on CEO’s starting to talk more openly about AI-driven position elimination. unfortunately this is probably behind a paywall, but some of you may be able to read it

Holy Hannah, this is like a virus that governments won’t tackle budgetary issues properly! and now NYC may be headed in some illogical direction.
Thankfully at least some states seem to continue to have balanced budgets!
