Behind every policy is the people who are impacted.
I was so grateful to spend some time in Rock Island with @LevelUpPAC today where I had the opportunity to hear directly from local city council members, non-profit leaders, union reps, and other key Quad Cities voices about how their work is being impacted by the Trump Administration.
I left feeling inspired and energized about the work Illinois is doing to stand up for our communities.
At today's Level Up roundtable discussion in Rock Island, @JulianaStratton connected with community leaders and public servants from across the Quad Cities to discuss how the Trump Administration's policies are impacting their community members and how Illinois is fighting back.
"Is this a moment where we take our ball and go home or is it a time that we lean in and get back to work?...My choice was to get back to work and to keep focused, and Level Up PAC is an example of why. That’s my declaration that there’s more to do.” - @JulianaStratton
I had the opportunity to sit down with @BrandisFriedman yesterday to talk about @LevelUpPAC, being a Black woman in politics, and how Illinois is standing up to the Trump administration.

I had such a wonderful time celebrating the launch of @LevelUpPAC last night with some very special people. The fight for working families is critical, and I'm grateful to have amazing people in my corner as we show the world what's possible when you put working people first.
Last night, we hosted a launch party for Level Up at Chicago's Taste 222. We were joined by friends, family, and leaders to celebrate the progress we've made and the work ahead as we fight for a brighter future with Illinois' working families at the forefront.
This week, we held our first Level Up PAC roundtable conversation in Rockford, IL. We were lucky to be joined by the wonderful Mayor @tmcrkfd and Reverend @VioletJ to discuss the needs and aspirations of Rockford's working families.

I'm so glad to be spending Presidents' Day with @VioletJ and @tmcrkfd in Rockford, IL for the inaugural @LevelUpPAC roundtable discussion and having a productive and inspiring conversation about how we can continue to step up for working families in Rockford and across our state.
In times like this, we don't check out – we lean in. Today, I’m launching Level Up PAC, so we can take the progress we’ve made in Illinois and expand that impact across the country. Together, we’ll do the work to help working families thrive. Join us at https://t.co/tZVGflI85q.
