Hello,
This is Michael A. Ayele sending this message though I now go by W and I prefer to be referred to as such. I am writing this letter for the purpose of filing a request for records with your office.[i] The bases for this records request are [1] the decision of former President Ronald Reagan to commemorate the month of April 1983 as National Child Abuse Prevention Month; [ii] [2] the decision of the State of Illinois to outlaw the corporal punishment of children in private and public schools beginning January 01st 2025, approximately 42 (forty two) years after former President Ronald Reagan commemorated the month of April 1983 as National Child Abuse Prevention Month. [iii]
