Americans should have confidence that every legal vote is counted — and that every voter participating in our elections is legally eligible to do so.
That is the simple premise behind S.3752, the SAVE America Act (Safeguard American Voter Eligibility), a major election integrity proposal backed by President Donald J. Trump. This federal legislation would require proof of U.S. citizenship to register to vote in federal elections, strengthen voter ID protections, and help ensure that American elections are decided by American citizens.… Continue Reading

Fund the Mission to Secure America’s Borders
For far too long, America’s immigration laws have been ignored, undermined, and openly defied by blue state politicians who promote sanctuary policies and refuse to protect our communities.
The men and women of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and Border Patrol have been on the front lines working to enforce our nation’s laws, stop illegal immigration, combat human trafficking, disrupt drug smuggling, and remove dangerous criminals from our communities.… Continue Reading

Illinois State Representative Barbara Hernandez (D-Aurora) and State Senator Celina Villanueva (D-Chicago) co-sponsored the bill, HB5093.
This bill would expand in-state tuition eligibility for students who are here illegally attending a public Illinois university. Lawmakers want to make sure that illegal immigrants receive the same tuition reduction perks as legal, law-abiding Illinois residents.
Unfortunately, but unsurprisingly, this bill passed both Houses with Democrats in favor and Republicans in opposition.
Once again, Illinois Democrats prove that illegal immigrants are equal to legal, Illinois residents and deserve to be compensated with your hard-earned tax dollars.… Continue Reading

U.S. Senator Ron Johnson (R-WI) is alleging that key agencies intentionally concealed critical information regarding the origins of the virus and the safety risks associated with the COVID-19 injections, still commonly labeled “vaccines,” along with the growing evidence regarding the side effects and lack of effectiveness.
During a short interview on Fox News Channel on May 24, 2026, Senator Johnson expressed his frustration and dismay about a major government cover-up, claiming it is “the most egregious government scandal in my lifetime.”… Continue Reading

Last week, we reported on comments made by State Senator Steve McClure (R-Effingham) in which he raised serious concerns after discovering that the Illinois Department of Human Services (IDHS) had sent voter registration materials to noncitizens applying for state assistance. That revelation alone sparked widespread concern and raised an obvious question: Why would a state agency be placing voter registration materials into the hands of individuals who are not legally eligible to vote?… Continue Reading

Passed in 2017, the Illinois TRUST Act set heavy boundaries on local law enforcement cooperation with federal law enforcement.
Functionally, the Illinois TRUST Act:
- Prohibits local law enforcement from enforcing federal immigration law,
- Prohibits detaining individuals for purely immigration status reasons,
- Prohibits local law enforcement from assisting in federal immigration operations, and
- Prohibits local law enforcement from transferring detainees into ICE custody without proper authorization.
Because of this, Illinois is broadly known as a “sanctuary state” for illegal immigrants.… Continue Reading

Written by David E. Smith
Illinois House Democrats are once again advancing sanctuary policies that place the interests of non-citizens ahead of law-abiding citizens.
During debate on House Bill 5093, lawmakers approved legislation removing key residency requirements for in-state tuition eligibility at public colleges and universities. While presented as a technical adjustment, the real effect is clear: expanding taxpayer-subsidized tuition benefits to individuals who are not lawfully present in the United States.
The bill’s sponsor, State Representative Barbara Hernandez (D-Aurora), acknowledged that the measure eliminates the requirement that a student be an Illinois resident while still allowing eligibility for those who attended and graduated from an Illinois high school.… Continue Reading

Angel Families, relatives of Americans killed by illegal immigrants, shared their heartbreaking stories at a White House event on April 9, 2026. These are the faces and voices that many Democrats and much of the mainstream media choose to ignore. They are real families grieving losses they believe were preventable due to current border policies.
The media often dismisses these stories because they don’t fit the prevailing narrative. Instead, outlets prioritize emotional coverage of illegal immigrants facing deportation while overlooking American families devastated by preventable crimes.… Continue Reading

Governor JB Pritzker is once again making headlines—this time calling for President Donald Trump to be removed from office under the 25th Amendment. His justification? The strong language Trump has used toward the Shiite (Shai) Islamist regime governing the Islamic Republic of Iran.
Pritzker has publicly questioned the president’s mental fitness, labeling his rhetoric “dangerous” and calling him a “deranged madman,” adding, “It’s past time. The 25th Amendment must be invoked.”… Continue Reading

Written by David Curtin,
The U.S. Supreme Court does not hand down 8–1 rulings very often, especially on culture-war issues. So when this Court—this Court—lands almost unanimously on one side, it’s an earthquake.
Justices John Roberts, Elena Kagan, Sonia Sotomayor, AND the Court’s conservatives all converged to say a particular law in Colorado was unconstitutional. Cue the earthquake.
The case has to do with “conversion therapy.” The term has been deceitfully used by LGBTQ proponents for many years to equate it with a barbaric practice.… Continue Reading
