Illinois is launching a first-of-its-kind legal hotline for LGBTQ+ individuals — Illinois Pride Connect.
As the only state in the nation that will provide free legal advice to protect the LGBTQ+ community, we'll help fight ignorance with information and cruelty with compassion.

Chicago performer’s Terrible Portrait drawings have become a hit.
Logan Square farmers market attendees are flocking to a table in the boulevard to have their portrait drawn by Jacob Ryan Reno for $5 — and he’s “bewildered” as to why.

The Chicago Philharmonic, performing free this month in local parks, led the supersized group in a rendition of the "Star Wars" "Imperial March." The crowd went wild.

Unfortunately this article has a pay wall, but I’m going to say this is fantastic and would love to see it happen!
Pharmacy benefit managers have helped drive local pharmacies out of business and increased the costs of your prescriptions.
I'm proud to say that's no longer the case here — we’re putting an end to their predatory practices.
The nation should follow suit.

A small number of these new cases are in appropriately vaccinated individuals, but the fact is they shouldn’t have even been exposed. We need EVERYONE possible to be immunized.
