The four candidates running for the Illinois 11th Congressional District seat in the U.S. House of representatives gathered at the Naperville Municipal Center for a primary election forum.
Democratic Candidates
The League of Women Voters of Naperville and Aurora hosted the event, which was split up into two parts featuring Democratic and Republican parties. First up were the Democratic candidates: Rachel Ventura, and incumbent Bill Foster.
Moderator Jan Dorner asked them a set of questions. One question asked was if they would oppose budget proposals and transfers that fund immigration and customs enforcement, and if they were committed to closing loopholes that commit transfers.
Foster's Answer
Foster, who’s held the Illinois 11th Congressional District seat since 2012, said the country “will always need something like ice”.
“I think what we have to do is make sure that ICE is doing what the people of the United States do what they really want,” said Foster. “They don’t want ICE to engage in ejecting Dreamers. A huge majority of Americans believe in the dream act that would provide a pathway to citizenship for these young kids that have never known any country but this.”
Ventura's Answer
Ventura, who currently sits on the Will County Board, said she’d vote to get rid of it.
“I support abolishing ICE,” said Ventura. “I support a pathway to citizenship that is attainable, affordable, and does not discriminate from the country a person comes from. And does not move the goalpost for families that are already here. I will vote with the progressive caucus against any future funding for the border wall. On December 16, Bill Foster did vote for $1.4 billion-check for Donald Trump’s racist wall.”
Republican Candidates
After an intermission, community members heard from Republican candidates Krishna Bansal and Rick Laib.
One question asked to both candidates was what are some way the would control healthcare costs.
Bansal's Answer
Bansal, who’s currently a Planning and Zoning commissioner for the City of Naperville, said costs could be controlled if the government has less regulations on healthcare.
“We can’t afford it anymore, it is a problem,” said Bansal. “It’s becoming a burden on the common man. It has to be controlled now. Again, it can be controlled if the government gets out, and removes the state boundary line for the insurance companies. Let the insurance companies compete nationally the way they used to. That is definitely going to help.”
Laib's Answer
Laib, a sergeant with the Will County Sheriff’s Office, also said government shouldn’t play a role with healthcare.
“If the government is not a part of it then there’s really one entity that can handle healthcare and that’s the free market,” said Laib. “When all the other institutions are left are in the game they are forced to compete. When they compete then everybody wins. Anytime there is some competition then everybody is going to win because they are looking to provide the best service at the best cost. Nobody is just writing free checks.”
The primary elections will be on March 17. You can check out where your polling place is located on Vote.org.

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
Illinois's first congressional district is a congressional district in the U.S. state of Illinois. Based in Cook County, the district includes much of the South Side of Chicago, and continues southwest to Joliet.
From 2003 to early 2013 it extended into the city's southwest suburbs until reaching the border of Will County, and covered 97.84 square miles (253.4 km2), making it one of the 40 smallest districts in the U.S. (although there are four smaller districts in Illinois). The district had a population that was 65% African American, the highest percentage of any congressional district in the nation. It includes the home of former President Barack Obama.
Since redistricting by the state legislature after the 2010 census, since January 3, 2013 it is a majority-minority district, now with 51.3% African American, 40.6% white, and 9.8% Hispanic population. The district is represented by Democrat Bobby Rush, who was re-elected in 2016, and has been elected continuously in the 1st district since 1992.
