* US Rep. Mary Miller’s office is in the Vermilion County Administration Building. This pic was taken yesterday by someone I know…
* OK, now let’s zoom in on the sign on the door…
The county’s COVID stats are here. From July…
[US Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene] said her ‘We Will Not Comply Act,’ which she filed in April, would offer wary citizens protection against federal overreach.
“It gives you permission to tell Biden’s little posse that’s gonna show up at your door, you know, that intimidate you — they probably they probably work for Antifa by night, and then they come and intimidate you to take the vaccine by day — Well, you get to tell them to get the hell off of your lawn,” she said to a room of about 500 people.
Of course, you don’t need permission from Congress to tell someone to get off of your private property. But Greene said her legislation would also allow people who refuse the vaccine to sue their employers for discrimination if the company makes vaccination mandatory.
One of the men in the audience, 72-year-old Dennis Johnson, showed up to hear Greene speak at a fundraiser for his Congresswoman, U.S. Rep. Mary Miller, who co-sponsored the “We Will Not Comply Act.”

To get any congressional services, you have to make an appointment. But you can’t get an appointment because the voice mail box is full.
Catch-22.

Might become future Danville office for Congresswoman Robin Kelly. (Some users on Dave’s Redistricting App are even pushing the new 2nd CD farther south of Kankakee and including Vermilion County).

Flowering of the “Do as I say, not as I do” rose. A member of the humongous hypocriticous species.

They go away and leave you alone if you put up a sign like this. Now let’s’ figure out what misinformation to put on my website.

Mike Bost’s office in Carbondale has had a similar letter on the door for more than a year.

I love the symbolism of the upper picture. I’ve always thought Miller was out of it.

Showing true leadership Congresswoman Miller stands by her no masking, no vaccination stand safely by not allowing anyone on her staff to see anyone in a physical sense. /snark

“We Will Not Comply, But We Will Inconvenience Our Constituents Rather Than Getting Vaccinated And Wearing Masks”
By the way, I thought the caption contest was going to focus on the interesting juxtaposition of the Exit sign under Miller’s (R. No Rel.) name.

The office was disappointed with this turn of events, given Oktober is “Fascist Awareness Month” and having to cancel all the rides, games and propaganda scheduled district wide.

Real COVID worry or secret Biden Antifa agent? Hmm…

Her other sign reads “Stand Back and Stand By”

My office can only meet with people who show they tested negative for COVID.

How will they know? No one’s ever going to know?

Wow, this should be really embarrassing for Miller.

Comment by DEE Wednesday, Oct 6, 21 @ 2:42 pm
No, I don’t mean we’re closed because of covid. I mean we’re closed because wearing a mask will give us covid. So out of an abundance of caution we are closed to allow us not to wear a mask.

If the 217-703-6100 mailbox is full, slide a note under the door and ignore the shredding sound that immediately follows.

==out of (an) abundance of caution for our constituents==
Just curious, is ‘abundance’ more or less than three percent?

Rep. Miller’s office is a metaphor for her head. They are both dark and empty.
Comment by Henry Francis Wednesday, Oct 6, 21 @ 4:18 pm
To keep from being seen, staff turned off the lights and are hiding under the desks.
Comment by Huh? Wednesday, Oct 6, 21 @ 4:22 pm
@unconventional wisdoM: “Wow, this should be really embarrassing for Miller.”
That would assume she is capable of feeling embarrassment. After her first ten months in office, I have my doubts.
Comment by The Ford Lawyer Wednesday, Oct 6, 21 @ 4:31 pm
Literally no citizen in Danville/Vermilion County can tell the difference. No surprise that her constituent service is non existent and most calls go to State Rep. Marron whose constituent service is stellar.

Any Capitolfax reader who could hang a “(No Relation)” poster on that sign would certainly be eligible for a free beverage on me!
