The week keep's rockin' and rollin' on another big show with Ray and Nick!

Retired Police Chief Tom Weitzel joins Ray and Nick to expose another woke policy making its way through Springfield, this time targeting former border patrol agents.

Introduced by Sen. Laura Fine (D-Glenview), SB2820 would ban Illinois law enforcement from hiring experienced border patrol agents as a rebuke of ICE and the Trump administration. Weitzel explains how the bill is plainly discriminatory and why it would deal a deadly blow to local agencies.

For more information, visit awakeil.com.

Arizona restaurant owner Jorge Rivas talks about his support for ICE operations around the country and why he's offering a free meal to all law enforcement that visits his establishment, Sammy's Mexican Grill.

And Stacey Wahlberg, President and Co-Founder of Cal's Angels joins Ray to share the story of her stepson Cal Sutter, a budding baseball star who was diagnosed with Acute Myelogenous Leukemia at only 12 years-old.

While Cal tragically lost his battle, his life has inspired a movement to bring greater awareness and research into pediatric cancers. You too can join the fight at the 20th Annual Hope Gala on February 28th at Drury Lane in Oakbrook Terrace. For tickets and information, visit calsangels.org/event/gala
