Donald Trump ended the National Blue Ribbon Schools program this year.

But, I believe that educational excellence should be celebrated — and it's why we're picking up where they've dropped the ball.

I’m recognizing 28 schools in IL as the 2025 Governor’s Blue Ribbon Schools.

Donald Trump is breaching the Constitution and breaking the law.

A show of force so he can militarize our cities because of the 2026 elections.

We need to stand up together and speak up.

We can't allow ourselves to become numb to mass shootings. What happened today in Minneapolis is heartbreaking, and Michelle and I are praying for the parents who have lost a child or will be sitting at their hospital bedside after yet another act of unspeakable, unnecessary violence.

Clearly this is not about making DC, or any of us, safer.

American innovation, like the moon landing 56 years ago today, makes this country great.

So why are Trump and his allies in Congress looking to gut funding for critical science programs?

Tell your representatives to protect American innovation for all of us. www.protectscienceandinnovation.org

Ahhhh - yes
Instead of defunding science, remember when the White House held their own science fairs?

Illinois thinks big. Another reason to take a drive across our state and visit the offbeat monuments of the great cities and towns in the heart of America.
Go big and stay home! Why Illinois loves its roadside monsters.
Our state loves its towering Abe Lincolns and ketchup bottles. Looking for a road trip? There’s a Giants Museum in downstate Illinois along Route 66.

In Illinois, we erased over $345 million in medical debt because we believe that no one should go bankrupt just because they got sick.

Donald Trump will roll back our progress and put families in jeopardy of financial hardship. www.cnbc.com/2025/06/23/b...
Health-care cuts in GOP’s budget bill may add up to $22,800 in medical debt for some families: Report
The Republican bill and failure to extend existing programs may prompt about 16 million Americans to lose health-care coverage. Medical debts may climb higher.

We’re facing an attack on our health care systems and the resources that working families rely on to stay alive. 

That’s why in Illinois, I just signed several bills into law that lower the cost of prescription drugs, protect consumers, and expand health care access. www.kfvs12.com/2025/07/01/g...

770,000 Illinoisans who rely on the Affordable Care Act expansion could lose access to health care because of Trump’s big beautiful bill.

He’s gambling with the lives of real people.

AOC: "On this point of tax on tips, as one of the only people in this body who has lived off of tips, I want to tell you a little bit about the scam ... the cap on that is $25,000 while you're jacking up taxes on people who make less than $50,000 across the US ... while kicking them off the ACA."
