Today, I pushed back against the sponsor of HB3527. I voted NO. This bill is heading to the Senate, so please contact Senator Chris Belt to express your opposition against state overreach! The bottom line is that high school mascot names should be determined by local school boards, not state politicians. Legislators on the other side of the aisle don’t understand the culture in Freeburg, yet they continue to act like they know what’s best for the 114th District.
