In a surprise announcement, U.S. Rep. David Cicilline said he is stepping away from politics. Cicilline has represented Rhode Island in Congress for over a decade. During his time in office, he took on Big Tech and served as the House impeachment manager for former President Donald Trump's second impeachment trial. He is also openly gay and an advocate for LGBTQ rights. So with all that apparent success, why is Cicilline resigning? "There were a couple factors. One, he was offered a job as CEO of the Rhode Island Foundation, the big nonprofit funder here in Rhode Island. He's going to more than triple his salary to $650,000 compared what he made in Congress," WPRI politics and business editor Ted Nesi told Under the Radar. "And he acknowledged it was just less appealing to stay in Congress, in the U.S. House, as a Democrat who is now in the minority, with a Republican majority who has very little he agrees with them on. And if we're being honest, Cicilline tried and failed to get into senior leadership position when the House leaders were changing over." Nesi said Cicilline's resignation was a shock to "everyone in Rhode Island" given the fact he was only a couple months into his latest term. Cicilline officially steps down on June 1. The special election to replace him will likely happen in November, so there will be several months without Rhode Island's 1st District represented in the U.S. House. Also on Under the Radar's Regional News Roundtable, guests discussed the aging Bourne and Sagamore bridges. Tens of thousands of cars drive across the nearly 100-year-old bridges to Cape Cod each day. Though the bridges are in desperate need of repairs, the federal government has rejected multiple requests for funding — although President Joe Biden's latest budget proposal would include a "down payment." "These bridges apparently have not a great design, and they're very difficult and expensive to repair. And it's that cost of repair — year over year — which is really driving the conversation here that they just have to be replaced entirely," said Steve Junker, managing editor of news at CAI. "Right before the pandemic, they were talking about a price tag to replace both bridges of about $1 billion. And everybody thought 'Oh, that's a lot of money.' Now they're saying it could be as much as $4 billion." Arnesen said now is the time to think big about the bridge reconstruction. "What the 'H' are you building? Because it's not just about a bridge. Because you're talking about also a bridge to the future. And what we know about the future is climate change. What we know about the future is maybe the desire for more public transportation. ... It's not just about a bridge, everyone. It changes the whole course of life." And, lastly, Under the Radar guests discussed how a high school in New Hampshire is training students for the Granite state's burgeoning outdoor tourism industry.

Former Orland Park Asst Village Manager analyzes misguided referendum to eliminate Managerial form of government Video of former Orland Park assistant village manager discusses the referendum to eliminate the village managerial form of government proposed by controversial Mayor Keith Pekau. In a political move, Pekau introduced an ordinance to replace the managerial form of government at a meeting on Monday Feb. 20, 43 days before the citizens could vote on the referendum. The ordinance outlines his plans to take control by appointing a village manager he controls directly By Ray Hanania Karie Friling the former Director of Development Services and former Asst. Village Manager for Orland Park, Illinois, discusses with host Ray Hanania, the proposed referendum introduced and pushed by Mayor keith Pekau to eliminate the professional Village Manager and Managerial Form of Government. If passed, the referendum on April 4, 2023 would open the way for Pekau to become a full time mayor with a larger salary. Friling discusses some of the concerns residents have about changing the system which has been in place since 1983 and helped guide Orland Park through its greatest expansion led by previous mayors. For more information on the Village Managerial Form of Government Referendum visit www.VoteYesOrland.com Former government officials have lined up against eliminating the Managerial Form of Government in a referendum that is constructed to mislead voters on April 4, 2023. The referendum question is ““Shall the Village of Orland Park retain the managerial form of government?” A No Vote eliminates the Village Manager position defined by the State of Illinois and replaces it with a village manager who answers directly to Mayor Pekau who has consolidated accountability to expand his power and control over every facet of village policies and decision making. A Yes Vote, which is encouraged by professionals who have dedicated their lives to protect Orland Park, would reject the referendum. The wording by Pekau was intended to confuse voters. You can watch the video of the interview I did with Karie Friling on Youtube by clicking this link or by using the the widget below to watch it on this award winning website. Pekau has repeatedly refused to be interview by this columnist and has slandered and attacked me by calling me names, rather than to be accountable and address the issues.

Liz Gorman vs Sean Morrison in the 17th Cook County District June 28, 2022 Season 4, Episode 1 Ray Hanania on Politics The heated battle between former Cook County Commissioner and tax fighter Liz Gorman and beleaguered incumbent Sean Morrison in the 17th District is a battle to save the Republican Party in Cook County. Gorman has a proven record fighting for the rights of taxpayers while in his first full term Morrison has done little for the taxpayers. Instead, Morrison has partnered with one of the worst politicians in Illinois history Keith Pekau, the extremist Mayor of Orland Park whose only asset is to turn friends into enemies. Morrison is a pariah who needs to be removed from office. If he wins the June 28, Republican Primary election, he is certain to loose the seat to a Democrat, eliminating any Republican representation in the 17th District. If Gorman wins the Republican Primary, Gorman can easily keep the County Board seat for Republicans and use it to rebuild the Republican Party that Sean Morrison has abandoned with horrible leadership and a lack of creative ideas. Morrison has an albatross on his shoulders, his mishandling of the case of his former Senior Vice President Anthony Martin who was convicted of sexually harassing a 14-year-old girl. Morrison defended Anthony Martin saying he needed him for his business and werote a letter to the judge in support of leniency and Martin's efforts to get probation. But after Morrison wrote the letter, Martin went on Morrison Security business in Colorado and using a Morrison Security cell phone sexually harrassed another 14-year-old girl, this time who turned out to be an undercover police investigator. Only 19 days after Morrison went for Martin's defense, Martin was arrested and charged. It's a sordid tale.

The Transition Team discusses the recent contentious Gubernatorial debate and evaluates the policy differences between Terry McAuliffe and Glenn Youngkin. Then they check a voicemail about prison gerrymandering from Buckingham County Supervisor Thomas Miles.

Later Michael and Thomas interview Dwayne Yancey who will launch Cardinal News Sept. 27, a new online news service covering complex regional issues affecting Southwest and Southside Virginia. Cardinal News will launch as the first news organization west of I-81 with a bureau in Richmond Virginia.
