Illinois House votes against making Obama birthday a holiday

Legislation to make the 44th president’s Aug. 4th birthday a state holiday fell six votes short Tuesday. Chicago Democratic Rep. Sonya Harper says it would honor a man who adopted Chicago as his home and served in the Illinois State Senate.


This probably would have been passed if he had actually did anything to help Chicago and all of the murders that have taken place.

He schemes against Trump, and is currently touring the world without his family. But he can't find time to help out his home town.

Like I said in the past - he had the potential to become one of the greatest presidents, but he squandered the opportunity. And he has done absolutely nothing to help his home city in crisis.

Bills like this are stupid. Naming anything after a living person is just idol worshipping, like George Bush Intercontinental Airport, IMO
