My parents taught me to memorize phone numbers in case we got separated. That memory sits behind every policy I fight to change.
Family separation is a nightmare many of us actively prepared for as kids.

ICE agents in Chicago are adopting family separation methods developed within the U.S. family policing system, reflecting broader state violence tactics linked to government enforcement.

Decisions to stand up are made

in defiance.
And we chose to stand again—alongside Rep. McIver—as her legal team moved to dismiss these unjust charges.
These brazen acts of selective prosecution must end.

The fact that top Republicans are already fearmongering about, lying about, the No Kings rallies this Saturday, across the US, tells you how worried they are about public pressure and protest against their reactionary, autocratic, anti-American agenda.

Moments ago, Bondi told the Senate Judiciary Committee the National Guard is being sent to Chicago, as we speak.
Federalizing troops against U.S. cities is not “law and order.” It’s the erosion of democratic order.

Pritzker says the Trump admin is about to deploy the National Guard in Chicago.
This morning, the Trump Administration’s Department of War gave me an ultimatum: call up your troops, or we will. It is absolutely outrageous and un-American to demand a Governor send military troops within our own borders and against our will.
