Join us at noon for a Livestream on assault weapons, abortion, and the race for Governor...

I hope you join us at noon on YouTube, Facebook, and Twitter for a Livestream. It’s a little something new we’re trying out, and if you like it, we’ll keep doing it.

We’ll be joined by Rep. Bob Morgan (D-Deerfield), who represents Highland Park and has been named to lead a new legislative task force on guns. He’s supportive of an assault weapons ban and I think we’ll have a good, fair, honest conversation. Bob jumps on around 12:05.

Around 12:20, we’ll be joined by my friend Rick Pearson of the Chicago Tribune for the likelihood of a special session on guns and a look at the race for Governor. Is it a race? Can it be? We’ll ask Rick.

Also, send me your questions or comments to mailbag@theillinoize.com. We’ll read the best ones at the end of the show. (I’ll only use first names so as not to get you in any trouble with any sensitive political spokesperson.)

Just head over to YouTube a little before noon, click the link, and you’ll be good to go!

Talk to you then.

P.S. Here’s my visit with Steve Cochran on WLS Radio in Chicago this morning.
