SUMMARY:The Changing Face of Immigration
DESCRIPTION:On September 7\, the League of Women Voters is partnering with the Aurora Public Library District to present a program on the evolution of immigration in the United States of America. Join us to hear contemporary immigration experiences and explore why and how immigration continues to change. \nThe Changing Face of Immigration\nTuesday\, October 7 from 7 – 8 p.m.\nAurora Public Library District\, Santori Library\, 101 S. River St.\, Rooms 125/126\, Aurora\, IL 60506\nVirtual via Zoom (password = arrival) \nProgram Description:\nAre you one of the tens of millions of Americans who can trace a family member to Ellis Island? A sonnet by Emma Lazarus on the pedestal of the Statue of Liberty includes the line\, “Give me your tired\, your poor\,/your huddled masses yearning to be free.” Many learned this quote in school as a symbol of our immigration system\, which continues to change. Immigration Attorney Omar Salguero will share contemporary immigration experiences and explore how and why immigration has changed. Mr. Salguero was born in Venezuela and raised in Columbia. He worked for a variety of financial institutions in the Chicago area before he began his practice as an Immigration Attorney. He presided over the Latino Law Student Association and served as the Central Regional Director for the National LLSA. \nPlease note\, this is a hybrid program\, so participants may join in person in Aurora or virtually via our Zoom webinar. Could you please help spread the word? \nTo join our Immigration program virtually\, people should use the following information:\nJoin link: https://aurorapubliclibrary-org.zoom.us/j/82789176418?pwd=sZMYwpTCru2aOaJCty5V2E4r9Wxh96.1\nWebinar join password: arrival

SUMMARY:Kane County Tax Referendum Town Hall
DESCRIPTION:Representatives of the Kane County Board will host several public meetings to present educational information regarding the proposed Special County Retailer’s Occupation Tax Referendum. In September 2024\, the Kane County Board approved placing this measure on the April 1\, 2025\, election ballot to ask voters whether or not to establish a 0.75% sales tax dedicated exclusively to funding essential public safety services. Those services include the Sheriff’s Office\, State’s Attorney\, Public Defender\, Coroner\, Circuit Clerk\, KaneComm 911\, Public Health\, and the Office of Emergency Management. \nThe proposed sales tax would add 75 cents per $100 spent on applicable retail purchases in Kane County\, with exemptions for essential items such as groceries and prescription medications. \nThe revenue generated from this tax would be allocated to public safety initiatives\, such as: \n\nSupporting law enforcement and emergency response services.\nUpgrading public safety technology and infrastructure.\nEnhancing emergency preparedness and response capabilities.\nExpanding programs to address drug overdoses\, neglect\, and abuse.\n\nEach meeting will follow a town hall format\, allowing attendees to ask questions and provide feedback. \nTown Hall Meeting Schedule:\n\nBurlington: Feb. 4\, Mott’s Lounge\, 5:30–6:30 p.m.\nEast Dundee: Feb. 10\, Dundee Township Building\, 5:00–6:00 p.m.\nElgin: Feb. 24\, Gail Borden Library\, 5:00–6:00 p.m.\nAurora: March 3\, Santori Library\, 5:30–6:30 p.m.\nSt. Charles: March 6\, St. Charles Library\, 5:30–6:30 p.m.\nGeneva: March\, 10\, Geneva Library\, 5:30-6:​30 p.m.​
