Anyone with a loved one with genetic or congenital disorders can tell you what a transformative service Lurie Children’s provides – the hope and clarity it gives Illinoisans.

The Edwards Family Division of Genetics and Rare Diseases is just the latest in their remarkable legacy.

Since Governor Katie Hobbs took office, Arizona’s economy has grown by more than 100,000 jobs, with the lowest unemployment rate in Arizona history. It is now a manufacturing hub with billions of dollars in private investment. We need to keep her in office.

No community should be forced to bear the weight of a system that profits from human suffering.

Private, for-profit prisons have no place in a fair and free democracy—and especially profiting off the suffering of an inhumane and undemocratic detention system.

Period.

Cannot overstate how dangerous this is.
HHS quietly rescinded the rule that required a minimum number of staff to be present at Skilled Nursing Facilities, Nursing Homes , stating Bidens rule disproportionately burden Facilities. Be aware. Part of the elimination of people who cost money. Nothing is more precious than money

GOV. WALZ on Trump’s racist attack on Somali Americans: “Unprecedented. We have kids going to school today and the president called them ‘garbage’ — condemn this attack or you are complicit in it… the only thing hurting this state is Trump himself.”

The trauma stemming from the arrests and deportations could impact immigrant communities for generations, said Lu Rocha, the owner of a private counseling practice in Chicago. She explains that trauma alters not just a person’s emotions but also the psychological state and body.

So proud of this campaign and the people of Tennessee who worked so hard for change. We CAN turn this tide. As Aftyn says, “This is just the beginning.”
Tonight, we did something everyone counted out. We proved to a nation that states like Tennessee are still worth fighting for. The margin was close, and that can only be attributed to the thousands of volunteers who showed out. This is just the beginning.

It's great that reporting on the double tap has spotlighted the abject criminality of this Administration.

But don't forget: Venezuela is not waging war on America or Americans, and the men killed were not combatants.

The first strike was every bit as illegal as the second.

Trump keeps telling his MAGA supporters that he’s NOT doing this for himself.

$Billions in his pockets and tons of parties ($1 million per person to attend) say otherwise.

He’s been a corrupt lying bully and businessman his entire life.

Mark Kelly is more than a hero. I'd love to see a class man run for national office in 2028 - a Democrat version of Ike - easy for all to respect.

As an aside, he isn't about to be criticized for the overuse of hair gel. He isn't sporting fascist tattoos, and he isn't a drunk.

In the last week, Donald Trump has called for the murder of Congressional Democrats and threatened to unilaterally declare an invasion of Venezuela.

If Congressional Republicans followed the Constitution, both of these would be removable offenses. But, they’re loyal to Trump, not the constitution.
