150,000 Illinois households may lose federal food assistance beginning May 1 Article Summary Due to changes from President Donald Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill Act, some immigrants are no longer eligible

The Trump administration is kicking 150,000 Illinoisans off of SNAP on May 1.

He's ripping away help from Illinoisans as the cost of their groceries, gas, and utilities continues to rise.

Make sure to check your status at abe.illinois.gov.

His incompetence and yes, unwarranted arrogance on display for the whole world to see. He's his own worst enemy. Diplomacy is dead if you keep posting threats before and during negotiations. And not one of his minion is willing to stop him. 🙄

New York Times Pace of N.I.H. Funding Slows Further in Trump’s Second Year The agency has approved far fewer new grants than it did in years past. A renewed effort to screen for disfavored terms and a loss of personnel are contributing.

American medical research is slowing at the exact moment we need it to grow. We have the best researchers and scientists in the world and this Administration is pushing them out the door.

RFK Jr. is actively undermining the science that keeps us competitive.

56 years ago, the U.S. marked the first Earth Day following a massive oil spill off the Santa Barbara coast.

While Trump tries to drag us backward with illegal offshore drilling in the same area, California is proving that climate action goes hand-in-hand with economic growth.

AOC is all sensible Americans right now, Americans who have completely lost patience with the wildly incompetent, lying loons currently running things who undermine our sanity, wealth, and wellbeing.

Nearly half of Republicans disapprove how Trump is handling cost of living The findings from the new AP-NORC poll show Trump’s approval rating on the economy has fallen over the past month.

Opinion: When it comes to Trump’s behaviour, the most plausible explanation is the stupidest Say goodbye to ‘Occam’s razor,’ and say hello to ‘Occam’s kazoo’

Trump is using religion to divide us.

This is a moral catastrophe.

Republicans in Congress cut health care to give billionaires a tax break. Now, 500k+ Georgians have lost their health insurance.

Too many will go bankrupt from treatable illnesses or avoid getting care until it’s too late.

This Autism Acceptance Month, we’re proud to honor the many Californians who enrich our state with their perspective, talents, and achievements.

California is committed to lifting up everyone on the spectrum to reach their full potential.

The Trump admin is doubling down on climate denial by ignoring science, boosting pollution, & putting lives at risk

If the decision to repeal the Endangerment Finding holds: expect more wildfires, extreme heat, floods, & droughts — as Trump’s oil industry–backed appointees ignore decades of science

Good to see Dr. Oz finally admit what we’ve been saying all along — fraud is a nationwide problem and the federal government needs to look inward before turning to unwarranted partisan attacks that ignore past actions by states to fight fraud at the state level.

OPEN THE STRAIT. CLOSE THE STRAIT. WE ARE BLOCKADING. LIFT SANCTIONS. IMPOSE NEW SANCTIONS. JD IS IN PAKISTAN. JD IS NOT IN PAKISTAN. STILL BLOCKADING. WE HAVE AN AGREEMENT. THERE IS NO AGREEMENT THAT IS FAKE NEWS. BOMBING AGAIN SOON (MAYBE)!

We made a promise to deliver safe medical cannabis to Kentuckians, and that's a promise we've kept. We cut the ribbon on two new cultivators, including Best State LLC in Stanford. We've made a lot of progress in just a year. Congrats, everyone!

Wisconsin governor rejects bill to join Trump’s private school voucher program The program was part of the

I have spent decades of my life watching the impacts that draining public funds from public schools to fund private voucher school programs has had on kids and schools in Wisconsin.

Public funds should go to public schools. Simple as that.

We have to stay focused on what is in front of us.

We must win the midterms. But we must also have a vision for when we are in power to address childcare, housing, and health care and make life more affordable.

At the recent candidate forum, I spoke about the importance of ensuring children and adults with special needs and disabilities have access to the resources they deserve.

That means investing in healthcare, strengthening education systems, and creating real opportunities for independence.

US citizens paid $166 Billion in illegal tariffs and now it’s being refunded back to corporations instead of us.

Sounds about right.

Excited to share some good news for Illinois families — we’ve reached over 100,000 children in our state receiving books from Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library.

Let’s keep reading.

There’s something mentally wrong with the President of the United States.

Donald Trump's Fed Chair nominee could not even say Donald Trump lost the 2020 election.

He is nothing more than a sock puppet.

What will it take for my Republican colleagues to step up, do their jobs, and join us to end Trump’s illegal war of choice?
