BREAKING: Iran’s Parliament approves the closure of the Strait of Hormuz.

Decision needs ratified by Iran’s Security Council.

It would trap 20% of the world’s oil supply and send a catastrophic shock through the global economy.

In the spirit of bipartisanship, here’s a post everyone should agree with:

1. The Middle East needs peace, not war.

2. No more United States-imposed regime change in the Middle East.

3. Iran must never have nukes.

4. Terrorism is always wrong.

5. Israel has a right to exist.

Let’s be clear. When the President defies the Supreme Court, it is the role of Congress to remove him from office. Full stop.

When following the headlines fills me with despair, it's comforting to cuddle with a family member who remains blissfully unconcerned about fascism.

Illinoisans are rewarded for their good choice: solid leadership.

In this extraordinary time, concerned state leaders invite people to join the fight against 47’s assault on Social Security.

👊🏼👊🏾 Raise your voice.
This is Illinois — and our people won’t be bamboozled. We see what Donald Trump and Republicans are doing.

@underwood.house.gov, @ltgovstratton.illinois.gov, and I are standing up and we want you to join us.

It's going to take every one of our voices.

Medicare for All isn't radical.

What's radical is that we are the only major country not to guarantee health care as a human right. Every other major country figured out years ago how to provide health care to all at a much lower cost.

Please don't tell me we can't do the same.

Russia kidnaps Ukrainian children and gives them to Russians to erase their heritage and demoralize Ukraine. Over 20,000 so far. And the US just stopped helping track these kids and likely deleted the database of all the research. Pure evil, right maga?

Women's rights are human rights.

Here in Illinois, we celebrate the contributions of the incredible women in Illinois' history and honor them by continuing to push our state forward.
