My family found a home here in America after fleeing the massacre of Jews in Ukraine. Like so many refugees, they found work and contributed to their community. It’s wrong that Donald Trump wants to deport families, just like mine, who fled violence.

Donald Trump promised to lower prices on Day One. Instead, his administration is telling us to raise our own chickens and embarrassing our nation on the world stage. All while hardworking Illinoisans suffer at the checkout or the pump.

Federal workers choose public service to serve our people, but the Trump administration wants to traumatize them. We need cancer researchers, forest service firefighters, nuclear safety experts, VA nurses and food safety inspectors. We don’t need Elon Musk, whatever his job is.

What can you do? Don’t give up hope. Dictators feed off your hopelessness. Don’t quit. Dictators want you to give up. Punch back. Dictators are bullies, and bullies are cowards. Stay tethered to the truth. Dictators need you to believe their lies. Resist. Stand with others.

The Trump administration told The New York Times that Elon Musk’s financial disclosures would not be made public, allowing the shadow president to direct vast swaths of government policy with enormous stakes for his personal fortune without the public knowing the precise areas of overlap.
