First, a correction. I heard on the news that Schakowsky has announced
that she is not running for Senate.

Second, an update on the conference report. The conference report was
produced yesterday. The full report is not public yet, even some
Congressional staff have told me they can't get it. Supposedly it will
be posted by Monday. But the summary is posted here:

Third: update on key members of the Illinois delegation.

Schakowsky is still on the fence, as far as I know.

Gutierrez is believed to be voting no.

Jesse Jackson is listed by FireDogLake as a yes. He voted for the war
supplemental in May. But he also signed Waters' letter on IMF reform.

Danny Davis is listed as undecided. He voted for the war supplemental
in May. But he also signed Waters' letter on IMF reform.
