3 years ago Illinois banned assault weapons, high capacity magazines, and rapid-fire devices. Illinois is undeniably safer - we have had fewer mass shootings and less gun violence. We will keep making progress, and won’t let the gun industry dictate the safety of our state.👊💪

1-year ago, Illinois banned assault weapons and high-capacity magazines. That’s 365 days of nonproliferation of weapons of war in our communities. Thousands of volunteers and years of advocacy defeated the gun lobby in the Capitol and the courts. (1/5) @MomsDemand

Nurses are on the front lines and are truly the backbone of our healthcare system. Taking the time to listen to their concerns and advocate for their needs will always be a top priority of mine. A big thank you to all of our nurses for the incredible work they do! (2/2)

With just two and a half weeks left in the spring legislative session, my colleagues and I are working diligently to deliver a balanced and equitable budget while ensuring healthcare in Illinois isn’t affected by the chaos in Washington, D.C. (1/2)

But none of that diminishes the way the ADL supported me and helped shape my commitment to pay it forward to combat antisemitism, and hate in all its forms. Thank you, Abe. May your memory be a blessing to all who knew you and all of the lives you touched over the years. #

In this moment of historically high antisemitism and normalized Jewish-focused hate crimes, the ADL has infinite work to do as we say goodby to Abe. The ADL doesn’t always get it right, & there were several major decisions over that years that where I disagreed with Abe Foxman.

I will always be indebted to the @ADL, and Abe Foxman. The organization was there for me when I had nowhere else to turn, and learning that Abe had passed away took me back in time. This is my ADL origin story. 🧵
ADL@ADL

ADL deeply mourns the loss of our longtime national director, Abraham H. Foxman z”l. Abe, a Holocaust survivor, served his entire 50-year career at ADL, becoming one of the world’s foremost voices against antisemitism and hate. May his memory be a blessing.

May is Jewish American Heritage Month: a time to celebrate the generations of Jewish Americans whose contributions have helped shape our nation. From civil rights and education, to labor, and business, Jewish Americans have played an enduring role in American history (1/2)

What keeps me up at night is the exponential rise of antisemitism that awaits my Jewish children. As @GovPritzker said, we must push back and fight antisemitism, bigotry and hate in all its forms.
Governor JB Pritzker@GovPritzker

I won't be silent in the face of a continuing record rise of antisemitism in our nation. We've got to push back and speak up against antisemitism, bigotry, and hate in all its forms. We are all stronger when we stand together. usatoday.com/story/news/nat…

I’m excited to share that my office is an official drop-off site for the Lake County Health Department’s Veterans Operation Dropbox! This effort supports more than 3,000 local veterans through Veterans Path to Hope, and I’m proud to help our community give back. (1/3)
