Editorial: IL Legislation to end the R-word

[Guest guest]

Daily Herald (Chicago suburbs) endorses proposed state legislation to replace

the r-word and " crippled " in state statutes.

" And allowing them to remain embedded in state statutes provides a layer of

credibility that keeps such hurtful words around where insensitive or

inconsiderate people not only will use them but also will defend their use. "

The online version is dated 3/21; the print version is 3/22.
