“You’re the Boss: A Citizens’ Agenda for Campaign 2020.”

This year, you’re the boss at the ballot box. This year, we’re listening as you share what issues are important to you and what you want candidates to know about your community.

We’re calling this ongoing project: “You’re the Boss: A Citizens’ Agenda for Campaign 2020.” 

The effort is a collaboration of the newspapers of the USA Today Network, including the Register Star, along with the radio stations of Illinois Public Media. In the Rockford region, that means WNIJ-89.5 FM.

The Solutions Journalism Network is providing financial support for the project.

Today, many college students are joining the electoral process as the 2020 elections approach.

WNIJ reporter Chase Cavanaugh has more on how a northern Illinois community college both registers and educates new voters.

A Florida Time reader inquires about Food Fair Stores in Florida where his father used to work.

Transcript: "Hi, I don't have a story as much information as I would want information about it. It is Food Fair stores. My father worked for the first Food Fair store in Philadelphia and then came down to agent the division in Jacksonville in probably the late fifties. Then we moved to Miami where a food fair stores had something to do with J.M. Fields, but I don't have a great recall on how it all started out or ended up. I know that when I went to Jacksonville, they bought out a grocery store chain there that was owned by a local guy whose name I don't remember. You can do some research and bring us up-to-date on Food Fair stores and J.M. Fields. Thanks. Have a good day, bye-bye."
