Great news! We have been officially endorsed by Advocates for Trans Equality, an organization that works hard to progress the legal and political rights of Transgender people across the US. I am incredibly blessed by their support for this campaign for ALL Illinoisans! @transequality.bsky.social
There is no better way to insulate yourself from global oil & gas price volatility than to invest in technologies that generate useful heat & power without any oil & gas input. The Trump WH attack on renewables is a direct attack on your economic security.

Benn Jordan's research confirms what we know: www.youtube.com/watch?v=_bP8...
Data centers pollute. They put out noise, they use electricity, sometimes they consume clean water. Economists call that a "negative externality".
If they can't be good neighbors, they can't be here.
Today, we lost an amazing leader in the fight for equality. Rev. Jackson moved mountains, unwaivering, to see our great nation progress forward.
Rest In Power Rev. Jesse Jackson. May your work continue on.
This is akin to outlawing cancer care and vaccines. Every person must have equal healthcare. And I will fight for others for as long as I am alive. And unfortunately, for the soft suits in DC, I'm a Midwestern trans woman. I'm as stubborn as a newborn calf and as hardy as the corn in our ground.
MUSIC HATH CHARMS...to strengthen our spirit of resistance!
"Raise Your Voice with Peoria 50501: Songs for Resistance" is coming soon - Thursday 2/26, 6:30pm at 3300 Event Center in Peoria. Join our community in this harmonious tune-up for No Kings 3.0!
The vindictiveness of President Trump knows no bounds. His cuts to Americans’ health care do not make America great. They make us weaker, poorer, and sicker.
#PeoriaIL sent out a reminder that we should recycle batteries instead of putting them in landfill trash. Lowe's and Home Depot have drop points for batteries:

When people are in government custody, we are responsible for their care.
30+ people have died in ICE detention since President Trump took office.
They must answer for it.
Had an absolutely wonderful time speaking with the folks at the 21st show, alongside three other candidates running for office here in the Midwest. Thank you to the entire staff of the show and of Illinois Public Media
And of course, make sure you support public media, like IPM, NPR, and PBS!
Confirmed ICE / HSI sighting in Creve Coeur about 1:30 pm. Peoria Rapid Response has it on their Facebook.
Posting here so that people know at least one raid has happened in Greater Peoria, and that observers are going to report on it.

President Trump promised his immigration enforcement would go after the “worst of the worst.”
But his Administration’s own data shows that is a lie.
ICE is going after innocent people, just to meet the President’s cruel enforcement quotas.
Hey Illinois! I'll be on the 21st Show this Friday at 11am to chat about our race, and what it's like running as an out trans person in today's political climate. Listen here:

Donald Trump lost the 2020 presidential election.
And now, he’s planning to subvert the 2026 election.
A weaponized FBI raided an election center in Georgia last month… on President Trump’s order.
Republicans’ response? To double down on his conspiracy theories and hold a series of EIGHT hearings to justify them.
We are preparing a Peoria County voter guide for the March 17th election! do1.pia309.com/peoria/2025/...
Vote early, vote often! Ask us for help, get a Democratic ballot, and vote for Sarah Howard!
