The Illinois House passes a bill to allow medical aid in dying. The controversial bill gives people in a sound mental state with severe health issues the option to end their life with the help of a doctor. But lots of ethical concerns have been raised #twill
Student loan debt is crushing for many young people. We're working on a plan to provide relief by helping Illinois residents refinance their loans at a lower rate. Thank you to @DelgadoRep for guiding this bill through the IL House. Next up: the IL Senate. https://t.co/Q8TwgDHgx1
Despite a court order, the White House bars a reporter and photographer from the @AP from an Oval Office news conference with Trump and his counterpart from El Salvador while the administration appeals the decision. @dbauder https://t.co/XyJdlxVY8U
While Jews around the world celebrated Passover - a holiday that symbolizes our freedom and the birth of our nation - some chose to spread hate at Northwestern University. Overnight, anti-Semitic graffiti appeared on campus, calling for the death of Jews (Intifada now) and the destruction of the Jewish state (Death to Israel).
It is no wonder that they chose to spray their hatred on the building that houses the Holocaust Educational Foundation - a chilling reminder of where such hatred can lead.
While Northwestern has taken some preliminary steps to combat and train against antisemitism, it is clear that it can and should do more - fighting unequivocally and unapologetically against Jew-hatred on campus.
I am grateful to law enforcement for their efforts to identify the perpetrators and bring them to justice.
