I had a wonderful day in the community on Saturday, starting with a craft pop-up to raise money for a family in Gaza, canvassing and getting to see holiday decorations, and capping it off with the St Lucia festival at the Swedish American Museum!

A deeply sad morning, with heartbreaking mass killings in Providence & Sydney.

Innocent students killed in a classroom. At least 11 people by gunmen at a Hanukkah celebration.

Too many guns here. Frightening levels of antisemitism globally. So much senseless violence & hate.

Meet Fashy the Clown, our giant ICE puppet mascot designed by Chio Cabrera. At our AT&T actions last week, Fashy drew attention to the telecom giant's contracts with ICE, CBP, and DHS and why we must stand up for our Black, brown, and immigrant communities in Illinois.

I really appreciate that @pbsnews.org ended the interview with this graphic.

It captures, in the simplest and starkest terms, the brutal arithmetic driving this country's homelessness catastrophe.

With a 35/22 vote, transit funding and reform passes the Illinois Senate. An historic governance reform and $1.5 billion annual investment in transit proceeds!
Transit funding passed the Illinois House 72/32. Off to the Senate!
