Random thought: people want to discard rules and norms. I have worked in quality for years (foods, chemicals, pharma, healthcare). Rules establish a mindset that shapes one’s commitment to quality and safety. Do we want these people in charge of sanitation? Giving you your meds?

From my first day in Congress, delivering for IL-14 has been my top priority. I recently secured $1.09 million to update the infrastructure to bring Lake Michigan water to Yorkville, Oswego, and Montgomery. Kendall County families deserve access to safe, clean drinking water.

A DeKalb school bus driver now has to visit a food pantry to make ends meet. She works. She budgets. She still can't cover groceries for her family. This isn't a personal failure. Republicans' cut SNAP in the Big Ugly Bill, hurting hard-working families in our community.

The legacy media sat there while Trump lied about the past elections and "joked" about running again in 2028. They did not boo. They did not walk out. They just sat there and ate their dinner. The journalists in that room will be remembered as the journalists in that room.

There is a bill making its way through congress meant to “Change how federal grants are awarded and managed, shifting the decision-making power from expert scientific review panels to political appointees” This would be catastrophic. www.scientificamerican.com/article/scie...
scientificamerican.com
Scientists overwhelmingly against rule change that would give political appointees say over science grants
Hundreds of thousands of scientists, including Nobel laureates, warn that changes to the way federal grants are approved would greatly damage American science

Obama: "It's a reminder that on a lot of different foreign policy problems, the notion we can just bully our way or bomb our way to solution may sometimes seem appealing ... You'd think we would've learned that lesson by now, but it seems like every so often we have to learn that lesson again."

I remember watching Barack Obama’s 2004 DNC speech and thinking: one day, this man is going to be president. What I didn’t know was that he’d launch a presidential campaign just 4 years later. Today, we’re a divided country. I’m ready to go back to the politics of hope. Who’s with me?

The NAACP is urging Black athletes and fans to “withhold athletic and financial support” from public universities in states that “have moved to limit, weaken or erase Black voting representation”
NAACP Calls on Black Athletes & Fans to Withhold Athletic and Financial Support of Public Schools in States Attacking Black Voting Rights

The NAACP today is launching the “Out of Bounds” campaign, a national call for Black athletes, families, fans, alumni, and consumers to withhold athletic and financial support from public universities in states that have moved to limit, weaken, or erase Black voting representation in the wake of the Supreme Court’s 6-3 ruling in Louisiana v. Callais, which gutted what was left of the Voting Rights Act The NAACP identified eight priority states — Tennessee, Louisiana, Alabama, Florida, Mississippi, South Carolina, Texas, and Georgia — and targeted flagship public athletic programs generating more than $100 million in annual revenue that continue to recruit Black athletes while their state governments dismantle the political power of Black communities.What these states have done is not a policy disagreement. It is a sprint to erase Black political power,” said Derrick Johnson, National President & CEO, NAACP. “These actions happened in days, in some cases in hours, of a Supreme Court ruling that gives extremist lawmakers a playbook to erode Black representation. The NAACP will not watch the same institutions that depend on Black athletic prowess to fill their stadiums and their bank accounts remain silent while their states strip Black communities of their voice. Out of Bounds is our answer: we are naming the contradiction, and we are calling on Black athletes, families, fans, and consumers to act on it. The same power that built these programs can be redirected. And it will be.”

The economic stakes of the campaign are significant. The flagship universities in the eight targeted states collectively generate billions of dollars in annual athletic revenue.
