We've delivered the boldest climate action in Illinois' history — reducing carbon emissions, removing air pollutants, all while making smart investments in sustainability and renewable energy. We won't wait around for this White House when it comes to real climate leadership.

Since taking office, I’ve worked with the General Assembly to open every avenue and clear every path to business investment in emerging sectors. This week, I was proud to announce Vantive's new HQ in Deerfield — helping establish our state as a leader in vital organ therapy.

On the 60th anniversary of Medicaid, I'm reflecting upon the millions across Illinois who depend on these life-saving services. I'll continue to fight to protect it even as Donald Trump and Congressional Republicans attempt to cut funding.

States like Nevada and Florida that rely HEAVILY on tourism are going to be DEVASTATED this summer. Again, there is no bottom to the fuck up of Trump. And sadly, a whole bunch of people need to understand what their racism, sexism and bigotry did to this country.

If you needed any further proof that the arrest of Judge Dugan was a propaganda opportunity and a fear tactic, here you go. Nothing about this is normal—it’s authoritarianism!

Doug Burgum, Secretary of the Dept. Of Interior. He use to favor protecting the earth. Then he was indoctrinated into the MS-47 gang of terrorists by his trumpdaddy. Switched into gutting sacred sites, drill/ mine public land, destroy national parks, the kicker is he now oversees Tribal land. BOOOO!

If they were arresting judges in another country with an authoritarian-inclined (even if democratically elected) government, we'd be alarmed. We in the U.S. should be alarmed.

How much of everything awful happening today could have been avoided by holding people who attempt a coup accountable instead of stepping back and saying "I'm sure the American voters will make the right choice."
