[Senator Adam Schiff @SenAdamSchiff]

At the Constitutional Convention, Benjamin Franklin believed that the sun was rising on the new American republic.

Now, many Americans fear that sun may be setting.

But we will get through the present trial. We must do all we can to mitigate the harms from this administration until they are brought to an end.

And then we will begin the long process of restoring the very best of America.

[Don Winslow @donwinslow]

HOLY SHIT!

This is from a sitting United States Senator against the President of the United States.

[Illinois Sierra Club @SierraClubIL]

Donald Trump and Elon Musk are breaking the law and violating the Constitution. Workers from @704afge are fighting back. Can you support them by calling your Representative and Senators? Tell them to protect EPA workers, and use all possible leverage to stop these attacks.

[James Tate @JamesTate121]

Please share.

[CUB Illinois @cubillinois]

Illinois is a national leader on bold, equitable climate policy, but it’s on us to seize the moment and continue the work in 2025! Watch as CUB’s Scott Allen reports back from this year’s #ClimateATheCapitol rally in Springfield with @ILCleanJobs.

In the words of @BarackObama, "we cannot condemn our children, and their children, to a future that is beyond their capacity to repair..."

The IRA in a once in a lifetime investment and we're seeing the benefits of such investment first hand and NOW!

[Kaskaskia Group Sierra Club @ClubKaskaskia]

This is such great news! Thank you @POTUS!

[Illinois Sierra Club @SierraClubIL]

The #SpringfieldRaceRiot monument fills a critical gap in the National Park System, which previously did not have parks that tell the stories of race riots, the founding of the @NAACP, and Ida B. Wells-Barnett. Thank you @POTUS! #MonumentsForAll

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

Bad debate nights happen. Trust me, I know. But this election is still a choice between someone who has fought for ordinary folks his entire life and someone who only cares about himself. Between someone who tells the truth; who knows right from wrong and will give it to the American people straight — and someone who lies through his teeth for his own benefit. Last night didn’t change that, and it’s why so much is at stake in November. https://t.co/Tn2TQu5Djo

Because of Donald Trump, more than 1 in 3 women of reproductive age live in a state with a Trump Abortion Ban—many with no exceptions for rape or incest.

[Illinois Sierra Club @SierraClubIL]

TY @BrendaMallory46 @AsstSecEstenoz for visiting IL and hearing why the Springfield community supports the #SpringfieldRaceRiot Natl Monument. Designating this site would allow @NatlParkService to tell a fuller story of American history. #MonumentsForAll https://t.co/tYm1lWnfeR

"Throughout May, which is #Asthma Awareness Month, we should focus on preventing asthma attacks with the most comprehensive approach possible... [which includes] addressing all sources of air pollution from combustion-engine vehicles," writes @BenJealous.

Alabama ruled frozen embryos are children.

Meanwhile, Alabama eliminated its summer food program for children who’ve actually been born.

[Kamala Harris @KamalaHarris]

My message is clear: The government should not tell women what to do with their own bodies.

[Governor JB Pritzker @GovPritzker]

Always great to have you back in the Land of Lincoln, @POTUS.

[Sally Burgess @BurgessWisdom]

Wade Halva with @faithinplace in Carbondale! Electrification: replacing equipment like furnaces that run on fossil fuels with their electric counterparts. Not overnight, but we need to plan now to move away from gas for affordability, health & climate. @CUBIL @SierraClubIL

[Kaskaskia Group Sierra Club @ClubKaskaskia]

#CleanHeat!

[Sally Burgess @BurgessWisdom]

We’re in Carbondale to talk about clean, affordable alternatives to gas. Fossil fuels are bad for our bottom lines, our health, our climate. @SierraClub @cubillinois @faithinplace @siusustainability and the City of Carbondale are with Southern Illinoisans to secure #CleanHeat

[Mayor Brandon Johnson @ChicagosMayor]

We must act boldly and quickly to move Chicago away from our reliance on fossil fuels, and ensure that everyone has access to clean energy alternatives. A #GreenNewDeal for Chicago means that we leave no one behind in the transition to a clean energy future.
