America in Crisis: We Demand Action and Transparency Now

I am writing to you today because America has become a terror state—not just in the sense of external threats, but in the daily fear and instability that have taken hold within our own borders. Our people are suffering, and yet we are met with inaction, obfuscation, and silence from those elected to

Protect Education

Please do everything in your power to protect students, educators, teachers, student loan borrowers, and anyone involved with education.

This drastic reduction would reduce CDMRP funding to only $650 million for the r

Regulate Home Schooling Now!

Home schooling needs to be regulated. It’s not about parent’s rights. It’s about making sure children have what they need to be successful in life. Student’s rights matter more!

Maintain child safety buffers for sex offenders' residences

I strongly urge you not to reduce the residential restrictions for registered sex offenders from 500 feet to 250 feet from schools, parks, and other areas where children congregate.

Continue to support the transgender community

I am a transgender Illinoisan. I’m terrified of the federal government’s attacks on my community. I don’t want to have to leave the country, but if and when the state of Illinois is no longer able to protect me, I will have no choice. I’m also worried because several prominent Democrats, including

Tell us HOW to stop Trump

I saw your response to Trump's speech last night and you said "everybody's got to speak up stand up show up" but you didn't say how to do that. Could you help Illinois citizens by giving us some concrete suggestions on how to speak up stand up show up? Just like you, I want to stop what Trump, Mus
