Dan Lipinski: “Time and time again we hear about how poorly our students are doing on math and science tests.”

I don't think that your decision to furlough these 2,000 employees is going to save the day.

Ultimately, the furloughs and long-distance service cuts are misguided, and weaken our national passenger rail service.

I really have some deep misgivings about my own decision to pull that amendment.

I am especially honored to see $355 million in CIG funds awarded to the South Shore Lines West Lake Corridor.
