Last night I spoke at an event in Normal, Illinois sponsored by the local 9-12 Project on “Citizen Journalism in the Age of Obama.”
(Left to Right) Master of Ceremonies John Briggs, Kristina Rasmussen, myself and Organizer Jeff Strange.
The local conservative group called it “Railway to Gateway.”
Kristina Rasmussen, the Executive Vice President at the Illinois Policy Institute, also gave a terrific speech on the the high speed rail project planned for Illinois.
The event was held at the updated ISU Alumni Center.
The address: 1101 N. Main Street, Normal, Illinois, 61761.
It will start at 6:30 and end at 9:30 PM.
Kristina discussed the high-speed railway boondoggle planned for Illinois. The rail line would likely cost billions and take taxpayers for a ride.
Kristina Rasmussen wrote more about the evening at The Illinois Policy Institute Blog.
Several protests were held in Illinois this year against this high-speed rail project. Here is a video report.
