In the current wild west era of college sports, Illinois shrugs off a state law requiring its athletes to report their NIL deals. Story w/ Jodi Cohen of ProPublica chicagotribune.com/2025/04/04/ill…

Appreciated the opportunity to weigh in on issues regarding state laws mandating collegiate athletes' disclosure of NIL deals. Perfect timing ahead of Monday's House hearing given that it could result in uniform disclosure requirements & penalties.

Many University of Illinois athletes do not disclose their endorsement deals as required, leaving the school without a full understanding of whether its students — some of them still teens — are being treated fairly. By Jodi Cohen Stacy St. Clair propublica.org/article/univer…

🧵 As hurricane season approaches, I want to tell you why I spent the past 4 months reporting this new story about Hurricane Helene. In 1999, I spent 13 hours in a car on a gridlocked interstate with my 3-week-old baby during the disastrous mass evacuation from Hurricane Floyd.

BREAKING: Illinois lawmakers ban police from issuing tickets and fines to students at school. This comes 3 years after our ProPublica/Chicago Tribune investigation into the practice. propublica.org/article/illino…

This is some big-time impact from the Chicago Tribune's investigation with ProPublica into schools that use police to ticket and fine students for minor infractions that could be handled in other ways. If signed, a new law will ban the practice. chicagotribune.com/2025/05/28/ill…

The House passed #ILSB1519 (69–44)! šŸŽ‰ A big win for #DebtFreeJustice — the School Ticketing Ban bill has now cleared both chambers, years in the making. Huge thanks to the advocates who made this possible — and to @jodiscohen + Jennifer A. Dlouhy for covering it start to finish!

The terror began immediately. Salvadoran guards beat them with their fists, boots and batons, shot them with rubber pellets, and forced them to lick other men's backs. What happened when we sent 230+ Venezuelans to a prison known for human rights abuses. propublica.org/article/venezu…
