Because that worked out so well the last time.

There is nothing more important we can do than have face-to-face conversations with our friends and neighbors. It was a pleasure to join the Greater Springfield Democrats for their Meet and Greet.

Right now, I know turning on the news can seem like a rollercoaster of sorrow. But I'm running because I still believe that the state, nation, and world we see outside these four walls is not the best that we can make it.

Senator Durbin has been a giant in Illinois politics all my life. I was glad to help celebrate him and his decades of public service with the Peoria County Democrats.

CUT. THE. CHECK. DONALD.

I am deeply saddened to hear of the passing of Rev. Jesse Jackson. His life was a testament to his fervent belief in the possibility of a multi-racial democracy that delivered equality, dignity, and opportunity for all people.

This behavior from Donald Trump is disgusting and unpresidential – but sadly not surprising. From his hateful slander of Somali-American citizens, to his racist comments about Haitians, to his treatment of the Central Park Five – this is who he is.

The real government fraud and abuse.

Happy Black History Month! This month and every month, I’m proud to celebrate our history, culture, and traditions that built this country from the ground up.

A beautiful service this past Sunday with my running mate, @cmitchellforlg.bsky.social, at People's Church of the Harvest in Chicago.

On the 53rd Anniversary of Roe v. Wade, we mourn the lives lost and women endangered when the Supreme Court struck down their right to reproductive freedom in this country. In Illinois, we're fighting for EVERYONE'S right to choose.

It was a pleasure to celebrate Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day with the Rainbow PUSH Coalition during their Dr. King Annual Breakfast. Today, and every day—may Dr. King's legacy live on through each and every one of us.

Now more than ever, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s memory serves as a shining light in the darkness—and is a reminder that the fight for justice in this country is far from over. Happy Martin Luther King Jr. Day, Illinois.

Happy birthday to my running mate and the best governor ever, @jbpritzker.bsky.social ! 🎉

Last week, I was proud to sign the Clean and Reliable Grid Affordability Act, a major win for the future of our state’s energy. Here’s how it will help YOU ⬇️ :

Too many working families are struggling to make ends meet across America. They deserve leaders who will fight on their behalf — not threaten access to child care for the sake of partisan politics.

Donald Trump does not care about working families. That's why he: 🚫 Enacted tariffs that brought up prices nationwide 🚫 Raised the cost of healthcare for millions of Americans 🚫 And tried to strip A BILLION in child care funding from Illinois' families

As someone who knows a thing or two about the job, I know there’s no better person to serve as the next Lt. Governor of Illinois than @cmitchellforlg.bsky.social!

I've spent my career fighting for Illinoisians, as a state representative and as deputy governor. Now, I'm running for lieutenant governor to keep Illinois moving forward.
