In trying to get working-class white folks to understand cross-racial class #solidarity, we might not always talk about these things in the "right" way. But it's important to get people to see things like over-policing as an issue affecting poor communities of all colors.

By now you’ve probably heard about Indiana’s increasingly difficult child care landscape.

I spent some time talking to providers about how they’re faring & learned about how nonprofits & community orgs are stepping in to fill gaps.

From our latest MADVoices essay covering the defeat of redistricting: “This victory is a reminder that democracy isn’t defended only in elections... When people show up together, even entrenched systems can be challenged.”

I’m sure the gerrymandering will keep most of our purple states red another cycle or two, but that too will change.

The lawlessness, corruption, and bullying is over. It’s just a matter of time.

If you’re looking for something to do, start working on overturning citizens united in your state. States control the power corporations have. Take their political power away with a ballot initiative. Here’s how: open.substack.com/pub/robertre...
How to Get Rid of "Citizens United"
We can do away with it without a new Supreme Court. Nor do we need a constitutional amendment. There’s a far simpler way.

Here in Illinois, we're ensuring that all mothers have access to the full spectrum of maternal health care.

US News has recognized 23 Illinois hospitals as high-performing in its ranking of the Best Hospitals for Maternity Care.

It's a testament to the progress we've made here.

Mayor Pete is right! Together we can win!

Hoosiers stood up & never gave up!

We flooded the phone lines! Braun had to call in retirees to answer the call volume.

We stood in statehouse gallery, gave testimony & our state legislators stood up for their constituents.
