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.

- Indicting political rivals
- Suppressing dissent
- Rewriting history

These are all chapters in the authoritarian playbook, and Donald Trump is following them step by step. Now is not the time to stand on the sidelines; it’s time to make your voice heard.

From my family to yours, we are wishing everyone observing Yom Kippur a meaningful fast. On this sacred day of atonement, we’re reminded of the importance of reflection and renewal.

G'mar chatima tova.

Donald Trump and MAGA Republicans just shut down the government to push their extreme agenda. They’d rather strip Medicaid, eliminate SNAP benefits, and close rural hospitals than keep our government open.

It’s appalling.

L’Shana Tova! Happy new year to everyone celebrating Rosh Hashanah in Illinois and across the world.

From my family to yours, wishing you a sweet new year full of good health and happiness.

$2B Cronus ammonia plant in Douglas County = local supply, lower costs, less dependence on imports.

New fertilizer terminal in Shawneetown = faster, cheaper delivery across Southern Illinois.

This is how we fight for our farmers—and win.

Farmers are getting crushed by high fertilizer prices and reckless tariffs. We're stepping up to deliver real solutions.

RFK Jr. is working to single-handedly dismantle the CDC. He’s ignoring decades of research and science to advance his own anti-vaccine agenda. He’s unqualified for the role, and his positions are deadly. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/07/u...

My message to Donald Trump is very simple.
TEXT: If you hurt my people, nothing will stop me, not time or political circumstance, from making sure that you face justice under our constitutional rule of law.

$2 billion investment = 130 new jobs in Tuscola, IL.

Our partnership with Cronus Chemicals promises new jobs, reduces our reliance on imports, and offers more support to farmers who can now utilize locally produced fertilizer.

It’s a major win.

Happy Labor Day!

For over a century, Illinois has been the epicenter of the fight for workers’ rights. Working families are the bulwark that has made our state the 5th largest economy in the nation.

Today, we celebrate workers and their leadership of Illinois’ success.

Rebuild Illinois is one of the initiatives I’m most proud of. Why?

Because communities across the state, like Du Quoin, can experience the direct impact of revitalized fairgrounds, newly paved roads, remodeled buildings, and more. www.kfvs12.com/2025/08/28/g...

Trump: After we do this, we will go to another location and make it safe too. Chicago is a mess. That will probably be our next one after this. They are screaming for us to come. African American ladies, beautiful ladies are saying "Please President Trump, come to Chicago, please."

When our police officers represent our community, they serve our community better. I’m excited to see the Illinois State Police take the steps to recruit more women into the police force at every level.

Joining ISP is more than a job; it’s a career. fox2now.com/news/illinoi...

This year’s Governor’s Day was the best one yet!

Democrats are the party that gets things done. And there’s no better example of that than what we’ve been able to do here in Illinois.
