Both of Illinois' largest bicycle advocacy groups, @rideillinois.bsky.social & @atalliance.bsky.social are working with SoS and legislators on the bill. I have participated in that drafting as Advocacy Committee Chair for Ride IL. We are absolutely working to create sensible regulation. Stay tuned.

We are not letting teenaged motorcyclists out on our roads without oversight. So why is it different for electric bikes?

Police have a duty, and obligation, to intervene if they see ICE- or anyone else- break the law.
They cannot stand idly by and just watch people be attacked, brutalized or murdered.

Re-Watching Stir of Echoes (1999)!

Ghosts need to take some time and learn to communicate with the living. It's quite likely that people would be willing to help them without the nightmares, jump scares, and the constant threat to the living, their families, friends & loved ones!

Literal warehousing.
BIG news from @bloomberg.com, which confirms that ICE has gone ahead and *purchased* multiple commercial warehouses with the aim of converting them into mass detention camps.

This is likely to be the big detention story of 2026 — literal warehousing of people.
