My sick day movie recommendation is Harold & Maude. It goes really well with tea and Sudafed.

Governor Pritzker joined members of the philanthropic community, reproductive health leaders, and state leaders to announce the creation of the Prairie State Access Fund, a new initiative in partnership with the Michael Reese Health Trust to sustain and strengthen the reproductive health ecosystem across Illinois to ensure continued access for both residents of Illinois and those from across the country seeking abortion care.

Illinois is taking a step forward for health care access and reproductive rights with the launch of the Prairie State Access Fund β€” an example of true public and private sector partnership.

We're sending a clear message: Illinois trusts women to make their own medical decisions.

Public executions at the hands of the government should never happen in β€œthe land of the free.”

Not one more taxpayer dollar for Trump’s DHS, CBP or ICE.

I don’t want to hear anything from an elected official unless it’s a plan to defund the DHS and impeach Noem, Bovino, etc. No texts. No emails. No talk about the economy. Step up or step off.

I listened to the first 30 minutes of the American Canto audiobook and DNF’d it because it sounded like Nuzzi was whispering. Also, does she write everything in the style of Ocean Vuong, or just this book?

Amazon, please stop asking me if books I bought month ago met my expectations. I still have unread books I bought in 2012. Be real.

JB Pritzker directs $20 million to Illinois food banks as SNAP benefits set to freeze Saturday amid shutdown Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker has earmarked additional funding to support seven food banks that supply more than 2,600 food pantries statewide ahead of SNAP freeze.

As nearly 2 million Illinois residents prepare to lose federal food assistance Saturday amid the government shutdown, Gov. Pritzker signed an executive order Thursday directing $20 million toward food banks across the state.

So many families in Central and Northwestern Illinois depend on SNAP to put food on their tables.

Because of them, I am urging Ag Secretary Rollins to release the SNAP funds from the USDA. Holding back funds to score a political score is wrong.

They also make shot blockers that help. My daughter’s doctor used a shot blocker yesterday and she didn’t feel her Covid vaccine. It’s a little piece of plastic with rounded points that distract from the pain of the needle.

This is the playbook, folks.

If you're not paying attention now and doing something about it, then you're going to have to sit down the rest of your life because democracy is being taken away.

Do not be quiet in this moment.

We shouldn't have to live in a militarized state, with Trump using ICE as his personal police force. It's not normal.

If Trump really cared about law and order, he’d reinstate the millions he cut from crime prevention programsβ€”instead of threatening our cities with military deployments that exploit our troops and undermine readiness.

I'm aware that the President likes to go on television and beg me to call him to ask for troops.

I find it strange, as Chicago doesn't want troops.

I also have experience asking him for assistance – just to have the rug pulled up from underneath me when execution meets reality.

This is... wild. It also makes me worry they're going to end up terrorizing Waukegan and North Chicago, where there might not be as many resources for grass-roots protection.

Pritzker: To the members of the press who are assembled here today and listening across the country, I am asking for your courage to tell it like it is. This is not a time to pretend here that there are two sides to this story.
