One of the greatest privileges of my job is collaborating with incredible abortion providers across Illinois. Thanks to our collective work, Illinois remains a critical access point for abortion patients nationwide.

Thank you, @ltgovstratton.illinois.gov, for lifting up the importance of talking about menopause and not treating it “like a disease,” but as a transition experienced by HALF THE PEOPLE on the planet.

Personal PAC is working across movements, standing shoulder to shoulder with immigrant communities, the LGBTQ community, environmental justice and labor movements, and many more to push harder, demand more, and to build real power. We have work to do.

Today, while exercising my right to peacefully protest, federal agents deployed tear gas and pepper ball bullets at me and other Chicagoans at the Broadview ICE detention center. We will keep resisting the Trump regime, #handsoffchicago and all of our communities! @handsoffchicago.bsky.social

This is about free speech and intimidation. We must speak up and speak out for the injustices coming out of the Trump regime. From Jimmy Kimmel to immigrants to abortion providers and patients, this is not normal.

We’re sending a message to Trump: hands OFF Chicago. No military occupation. No ICE. We’re Chicagoans. We stick together, and no one is going to intimidate us out of standing up for what’s right. Join us and find resources and ways to get involved: www.handsoffchicago.com #HandsOffChicago

I hope you will join me and 1,400+ reproductive health advocates, including Illinois @govpritzker.illinois.gov & Minnesota @ltgovflanagan.mn.gov, on 10.24.25 to hear about the work we’ve done and our plans for the future. RSVP 👉 bit.ly/ppacluncheon2025

Mood.

As states surrounding Illinois are criminalizing doctors and making abortion inaccessible, Illinois is leading with bold, compassionate policy. Personal PAC, along with our champions in Springfield, are playing offense—we are the ones to determine our futures and safety.

This is alarming and why we need leaders to be bold, authentic, and solve real problems that people are facing.

Great repro news roundup from @garnethenderson.com & @susanrinkunas.com at @autonomynews.co

MUST READ from @nytopinion.nytimes.com: “This [bill] will make babies less healthy from the very beginning. Even some of the people who ended up voting for this bill know how devastating it is going to be. What a preventable tragedy. What a pathetic shame.”

The Republican Budget Bill takes away health care from millions of people in order to pay for tax cuts for billionaires. This bill will make health care more expensive, inaccessible, and will strip us of our freedom to decide where we access care. This bill will make our country sick.

Today’s Wisconsin Supreme Court ruling is a victory for abortion access. This marks a hard‑fought victory after a 3 year struggle created by Trump’s Supreme Court’s Dobbs decision & decades of legal uncertainty. This is a win for freedom, but the fight for full abortion access continues.

About to step off for the Chicago Pride Parade with Equality Illinois! Repro rights are LGTQIA+ rights ❤️🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈

This ruling doesn’t just impact Planned Parenthood, it opens the door for anti-abortion politicians to further erode public health systems & target clinics. Personal PAC is more committed than ever to electing leaders who will stand up to attacks on health care & ensure that no one is denied care.

It’s been three years since the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade.   The Trump administration is still chipping away at every aspect of your right to choose. But here in Illinois, your reproductive freedom will never be restricted — so long as we keep fighting for it.

Illinois so so fortunate to have a governor who champions, protects, and respects our reproductive freedom. Thank you, @govpritzker.illinois.gov!

Activists who want to make abortion a crime akin to murder say miscarriages and stillbirths shouldn't be investigated UNLESS the woman doesn't appear sad enough, used drugs, or depending on how she disposed of the remains. All of which is already happening: www.newsfromthestates.com/article/more...

I’m inspired by the young people stepping up to fight for the world they want to live in. Are you under 40 & ready to get to work on protecting & expanding abortion access in IL? Personal PAC is recruiting young leaders to join our NextGen Board. Apply by Friday, August 1 bit.ly/ppacnextgenboardapp

I hate that we lost Roe, but Roe was never enough. I’m moving my pain and anger into action to build something better that works for everyone. Abortion is health care.

Personal PAC, @chicagolabor.bsky.social, Sierra Club IL, @icirr.bsky.social and Equality IL urge our IL Senators to vote NO on cloture and the Republican Continuing Resolution today.
