Nathan Clark — the father of 11-year-old Aiden Clark, who was killed in a car accident in Springfield, Ohio — tells JD Vance and Donald Trump to stop using his son’s name and the city of Springfield to demonize Haitian immigrants. “This needs to stop now!”

Yesterday I officially filed for my place on the ballot in Austin’s mayor’s race this fall. I’ll fight to rebuild our middle class and protect our civil rights. We need a leader who will work for all Austinites…not big money, not big donors, and certainly not the Governor.

Thank you @GovPritzker and the Illinois State Legislature for creating more options for childbirth and recognizing the incredibly courageous, wickedly smart, and mostly female midwife profession! Childbirth should be normalized at home, in birth centers, and not just hospitals.

Today, the lifesaving and lifegiving work midwives perform will be legally recognized here in Illinois.   It’s a victory decades in the making and one that recognizes the full value of midwives in reproductive care – another step toward advancing health equity across our state.

We will keep working to make sure that vaccines are equitably available and that people in the communities that have suffered the most actually take the vaccines. We need that "blanket of protection" over our community, our country, and God's world.
