St. Clair County

...

they figured it out how to bring Cook County down into, I guess that's St. Clair County.

Oh, yes.

It is crazy.

It is way beyond what I'm saying.

People say, people say St. Clair County is little Cook County.

All right.

Well, I'm t- East St. Louis and the Cahokia area-

The city police department tells KMOX they do not comment on pending litigation.

A St. Clair County police department cracking down after teenagers caused trouble over the weekend.

Fairview Heights Police say large groups of teens disrupted a Raising Canes and surrounding businesses, blocking lots, refusing to leave, and in some cases, fighting and damaging property.

The department says kids are welcome to hang out and eat with friends, but that behavior crosses the line.

You wanna go to Springfield as a Republican, represent a portion of Madison County.

Do you have St. Clair County in that too, then?

Yes, absolutely.

Yeah.

S- Madison and St. Clair County.

Yeah.

Um, why put yourself in this position to represent the 112th District?

Um, I'm the last one to flip a seat.

Uh, I could do it in St. Clair County, which is Democrat.

You're the last person in the Illinois State Legislature-

House

Yeah.

Yeah, I'm the last.

So, um, you know, and it, it's St. Clair County.

I have East St. Louis, I have Cahokia Heights.

So one of the things I've been te- I've been asking County Executive Elman for years as a St. Louis County resident and a city resident is, um, I have some hostility about the fact that the St. Charles County does not contribute to the Zoo Museum District and then gets into everything for free.

I've even pitched the idea as if you live in Jeffco or St. Charles County or Franklin County or Madison County or St. Clair County and your county doesn't pitch in, you get charged an admission, and everybody else gets in for free.

So if you live in Boone County, if you live in Tennessee, you all get in for free, but y- St. Charles County residents have to pay to get into the zoo and the Hi- and the History Museum.

Um, he did not like that idea.
