Illinois Congresswoman Mary Miller (R-Taylorville) recently introduced legislation to protect parental rights in response to Illinois’ unprecedented mandate requiring public schools to offer annual mental health screenings for students.
Last year, Governor JB Pritzker signed SB 1560 on July 31, 2025, making Illinois the first state in the nation to require universal mental health screenings for students in grades 3 through 12. The new law went into effect on January 1, 2026.… Continue Reading

The DSA’s Platform Walks Us Through, Brick by Brick
The Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) has officially released an updated platform titled Workers Deserve More!, published through its official magazine, Democratic Left. Describing it as a vision for a “comprehensively democratic society,” the platform seeks to unite the organization’s rank-and-file membership and elected officials around a single political program.
As expected, the DSA platform upholds the “right” to kill preborn babies in the womb (abortion) by calling for universal healthcare and “reproductive care.”… Continue Reading

A companion measure, H.R.… Continue Reading

Illinois and the Nation Must Prioritize Election Integrity
President Donald Trump’s prime-time address this week presents a timely opportunity to launch a genuine national, bipartisan effort to strengthen election integrity. Unfortunately, top Democratic officials and their allies in the dishonest media have already rushed to criticize the president, dismissing his concerns about voter fraud and election meddling as “false” or “unsubstantiated.”
On his personal X page, JB Pritzker posted a statement in response accusing the President of “spewing lies” and attempting to “gaslight the American people” with “baseless claims” and “shameless propaganda.… Continue Reading
