When the President of the United States says he doesn’t know if he should uphold the Constitution, it should be a searing red line for every American.
If you let him ignore ANY aspect of the Constitution you embolden him to ignore more of it, including the parts that secure YOUR freedoms & rights.

RFK Jr.’s lies about autism are disgraceful — and I won't share them to spread misinformation.
He consistently undermines public health and reinforces dangerous myths.
In Illinois, we stand with those with autism, and I’ll keep fighting for inclusion, science, and the truth.
