On July 1st 2025 the government of Saratoga Springs passed an ordinance that made camping and the use of camping equipment on city property a fineable offense. However, community members and activists objected to this ordinance at the public hearing held on July 1st saying that the vague wording essentially criminalizes homelessness in the city. I spoke with Dio Kaufman, a tenant rights advocate and activist who was arrested at the public hearing during their comments, about the events of the public hearing, the effect this ordinance will have on the homeless population, and how this law could be used to target protesters in Saratoga.

With Chicagoland racing on the decline, Fairmount Park near St. Louis has become the one track in Illinois where the sport is on the rise. This week the Collinsville venue plays host for this on-the-road episode of the Ron Flatter Racing Pod.

Jim Watkins, the president of the Illinois Horsemen's Benevolent and Protective Association, discusses the challenges facing owners and trainers like him who continue to race their horses at both Fairmount and at Hawthorne in suburban Chicago. He also expresses his optimism about the potential expansion of racing at Fairmount beyond its current Tuesday-and-Saturday schedule.

On July 1, many Saratogans turned up to oppose a so-called "camping ban" ordinance that would criminalize a wide range of actions and situations of homelessness. The proposal was put forth by Councilmember Coll on the eve of the Saratoga racetrack opening for the season, and residents were alarmed that he broadcast photographs taken of sleeping people without consent. There was one arrest, and people spoke for over four hours, on their own experiences being unhoused, how this would exacerbate the existing housing crisis, and lawsuits that this would open the city to. The council passed it by a 3-2 vote.
