Heads up, Illinois! There’s a chance for severe storms today and tomorrow, especially north of I-72 and around Chicago. Risks include large hail, strong winds, tornadoes, and flash flooding. Stay safe and keep an eye on your local weather!

Let me be clear that hate has no home here in Illinois. This symbol has one purpose: to stir up intimidation and terror. We will not be silent — those responsible must be held accountable.

The classroom is for learning, not scrolling. Illinois is enacting a bell-to-bell cell phone ban in our classrooms so our students can focus on what matters.

Inflation just hit a three-year high. Gas is up over 40% in a year. Groceries at their biggest price hike in years. Trump’s chaos is driving this. In Illinois, we’re fighting in the other direction: eliminating the grocery tax, capping insulin costs, lowering energy bills.

We eliminated this year’s inflation on gas tax to give working families some relief at the pump from Donald Trump.

Gratitude is what comes to mind whenever I walk through the doors of @La_Rabida. Honored to celebrate their 130th with them today as they continue a legacy of welcoming in all with open arms and high-quality care.

Mike Johnson says the quiet part out loud. While Republicans continue to fund a war of choice, tax cuts to the wealthy, and Trump’s personal slush fund, they’re putting what actually helps out working families like Medicaid on the chopping block.

It’s official Donald Trump is putting himself ahead of the American people. Todd Blanche has shown he only works to defend one man — and one man only.

The war in Iran has now passed 100 days — and Illinoisans are still feeling the pain from the price of gas to groceries. In times like these, the Land of Lincoln is stepping up for our people to help working families pay those bills.

Americans are feeling the pain from Donald Trump’s tariffs to the Republicans in Congress taking away help. Here in Illinois, we were able to provide working families direct economic relief and counter the inflationary price increases brought on by Washington’s failed policies.

I'm directing my administration to pause the processing of data center agreements while we continue working with the General Assembly on a comprehensive framework that protects affordability, safeguards natural resources, and ensures responsible growth.
