A southern Illinois lawmaker is urging Governor JB Pritzker to drop coronavirus restrictions and reopen the state. State Senator Terri Bryant says too many businesses are hurting from COVID-19 restrictions, and it's affecting people personally, too. She says residents in nursing homes and assisted living centers haven't seen family and friends in months - and it's time to loosen restrictions. "They're just not letting family members go into those facilities, even in the facilities where 100% of those who are living there - and the staff - have been offered the vaccine. So, if they've been offered the vaccine - both residents and staff - why can't the visitors come in?"
