Chevron seeks to take Chicago’s climate change ‘disinformation’ suit to federal court – Cook County Record
In their petition, the oil and gas companies assert the case belongs in federal court, because the lawsuit launched by the administration of Mayor Brandon Johnson amounts to an illegal attempt to use state courts to force energy companies which operate globally and are regulated by federal law to comply with the political demands of Chicago's left-wing majority, and then pay large sums of money in the process for their alleged past transgressions. Few voters in the recent primary elections in Illinois have shown interest in voting, with only 20 percent of the population participating. This is due to a lack of competitive elections or gerrymandering, or a belief that their votes don't matter. This lack of participation in competitive elections could be a factor in Illinois' future. Chevron is seeking to take its climate change 'disinformation' suit to federal court, seeking to challenge the city's denial of climate change.

Few Illinoisans found reason to vote in the most recent primary elections. Overall, voter turnout was maybe just 20 percent statewide. Perhaps it was a lack of competitive elections. Or gerrymandering. Or people think their votes don’t matter. Maybe it was a little bit of each. Whatever it was, few seem to care. And that’s bad news for Illinois’ future.
