Make no mistake: Illinois is leading the nation in strengthening women’s health care. With the passage of HB 3637, we are expanding the ways we shield our providers from punishment for delivering life-saving health care. We are not going back.

CDC contradicts RFK jr on Covid vaccines for children www.nytimes.com/2025/05/30/h...

Gotta meet him with some resistance. 😉 Despite RFK Jr.’s claims, the CDC did not remove COVID vaccines from the childhood immunization schedule.

Another win!!! Now release him. A federal judge just ruled that the law used to detain Mr. Khalil is likely unconstitutional. Why? Because it’s too vague and was never meant to apply to someone like him a U.S. resident who never left the country.

RFK Jr’s Department of Health and Human Services has notified Moderna that it is canceling a nearly $600 million contract with the company to develop, test, and license vaccines for flu strains that could trigger future pandemics, including the dangerous H5N1 bird flu virus.

About 40 million adults are on Medicaid 92% of them are working or have a work exemption So approximately 3.2 million aren’t working If MAGA makes the cuts passed in the House, up to 14.4 million people may lose healthcare That’s 11.2 million people who are NOT “able bodied”, if you’re counting

Voters overwhelmingly think ALL Americans should have access to vaccines — not just those who are immunocompromised.

The "Flags" and "Signs" have been Coming Down. Judges and Attorneys have been getting together behind the scenes. Cracks have been growing bigger and bigger in the White House. The Entire World has our back. Be INSPIRED, Stay Strong, STAY SAFE AND AWARE!!! 🦾🦾🦾 💞💞💞 ✨️✨️✨️

Attacks on the rule of law.

Today the Supreme Court cleared the way for the federal government to transfer thousands of acres of national forestland including a Native American sacred site, to Resolution Copper a mining company owned by Rio Tinto and BHP. The land holds deep spiritual significance for the Western Apache tribe.

That's very true.

Right on.

This Friday, May 30, clergy of many faiths will walk from Lexington to Boston praying for democracy and bearing witness to threats to vulnerable communities, civil liberties and due process. Please join or support us! #PrayersForLiberty @reveverett.com www.masscouncilofchurches.org/wp-content/u...

Not a coincidence.

Today, I was denied access to seeing my constituent, Mr. Kilmar Abrego Garcia. If there is nothing to hide, cut the crap. Let his lawyer and I check on him.

The origins of Memorial Day trace back to May 1, 1865 when 28 formerly enslaved Blacks-Charleston, SC, organized the 1st commemoration aka Decoration Day which honored fallen Union soldiers, celebrate emancipation & commemorate the dead, & recognize the struggle against slavery #BlackHistory #Ubuntu

Short explainer on how Republicans will secretly cut MEDICARE: 1. Congress is bound by the “PAYGO” Act, which requires automatic cuts to offset any deficit spending . 2. This budget adds $2.3 Trillion to the deficit, triggering PAYGO cuts of $500B to Medicare. Tell your Senators to VOTE NO!

Oligarchs are waging a war on the working class.
