					<description><![CDATA[<p><em>Written by Alyssa Sonnenburg</em></p>
<p>On February 18, <strong>President Donald J. Trump</strong> signed an executive order that expands access to In-Vitro Fertilization (IVF).</p>
<p>According to the <a href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/fact-sheets/2025/02/fact-sheet-president-donald-j-trump-expands-access-to-in-vitro-fertilization-ivf/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">White House</a>,</p>
<blockquote><p><span style="background-color: #ffff99;">“The Order recognizes the importance of family formation and that our Nation’s public policy must make it easier for loving and longing mothers and fathers to have children.”</span></p></blockquote>
<p>The executive order goes on to cite the dangerously low fertility rate America is currently facing, as well as the difficulty many families are having as they try to have children.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2025/02/ivf-is-not-pro-life/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[<p><em>Written by Jorge Gomez</em></p>
<p>U.S. Senator <strong>Cory Booker</strong> (D-NJ)—joined by more than two dozen of his Democratic colleagues as co-sponsors—recently reintroduced the “Do No Harm” Act (DNHA), a bill they claim would help “restore the Religious Freedom Restoration Act’s (RFRA) original intent.”</p>
<p>To refresh your memory, RFRA is a federal law crucial to the protection of religious liberty. Signed into law in 1993 by Democratic President <strong>Bill Clinton</strong>, RFRA has stood for over a quarter century as a legal bulwark and helped protect Americans from government infringement on their constitutional rights.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2021/10/u-s-senate-democrats-reintroduce-dangerous-bill-that-could-gut-landmark-federal-religious-freedom-law/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>While it might not be popular to say in the wake of the recent social disorder, the true plight of black people has little or nothing to do with the police or what has been called &#8220;systemic racism.&#8221; Instead, we need to look at the responsibilities of those running our big cities.</p>
<p>Some of the most dangerous big cities are: St. Louis, Detroit, Baltimore, Oakland, Chicago, Memphis, Atlanta, Birmingham, Newark, Buffalo and Philadelphia.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2020/06/the-true-plight-of-black-americans/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>In today’s Democratic Party, anything goes—from <a href="https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/warren-applauds-9-year-old-transgender-child-at-cnn-forum">applauding</a> parents who encourage their children to reject their God-given identity and mutilate their young bodies, to bizarrely championing “<a href="https://www.nationalreview.com/corner/julian-castro-on-abortion-one-2020-democrat-hit-the-gas-pedal/">abortion rights for trans-females</a>,” to <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2019/11/25/us/politics/democratic-candidates-abortion-survey.html#link-6a161632">now</a> happily supporting the dangerous do-it-yourself abortion method known as the abortion pill.</p>
<p>When the <em>New York Times</em> <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2019/11/25/us/politics/democratic-candidates-abortion-survey.html#link-6a161632">surveyed</a> the 2020 Democratic presidential candidates, all of them (unsurprisingly) vowed to defend abortion. However, when asked if they were in favor of lifting the restrictions on abortion pills and making them available over-the-counter (<span class="caps">OTC</span>), many of the candidates were unwilling to take a public position.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2019/12/2020-democrats-want-unsafe-unregulated-do-it-yourself-abortions/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>Democrats can’t seem to figure out whether they want to use the government to drive Christianity underground or just replace the biblical version with fake Christianity.</p>
<p>These aren’t mutually exclusive goals; either one brings America closer to a secular, socialist state whose unofficial religion is atheism.</p>
<p>Democratic presidential contenders like former Vice President <strong>Joe Biden</strong>, Massachusetts U.S. Senator <strong>Elizabeth Warren</strong>, New Jersey U.S. Senator <strong>Cory Booker</strong>, California U.S. Senator <strong>Kamala Harris</strong> and South Bend Mayor <strong>Pete Buttigieg</strong> invoke Christianity to shill for taxpayer-funded, unrestricted abortion and the family values of Sodom, plus confiscation of wealth and redistribution.  &#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2019/09/democrats-put-their-faith-in-the-faithless/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>While President <strong>Donald Trump</strong> is an ideal scapegoat for leftist hatred and demagoguery, the left’s ultimate goal is to permanently reduce conservatism and the Republican Party to minority status by indelibly associating them with racism.</p>
<p>Listen to what the Democratic presidential candidates and other Democrats are saying. If you support border enforcement, you are a racist. If you support Trump, who pushes border enforcement, you are a racist. If you don’t condemn Trump for being a white supremacist, which he is not, you are a white supremacist.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2019/08/the-left-is-on-a-mission-to-annihilate-conservatism/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[<p><em>Written by David Limbaugh</em></p>
<p>In Wednesday evening’s Democratic presidential debate circus, the left’s favorite darlings turned on one another with a selfish vengeance, which was a positive development for the country and mildly entertaining. The glorious infighting continued among progressive commentators.</p>
<p>This acrimony, coupled with the public exposure of the left’s crazy ideas, surely diminished the party’s image among sane voters. The more leftists reveal their inanity and extremism, the better for President Trump and the nation.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2019/08/democrats-in-showing-their-extremism-do-nation-a-favor/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>One reason many Americans don&#8217;t trust those &#8220;fact-checker&#8221; websites is because to know them is to see right through their incessantly liberal worldview. These impartial arbiters of truth routinely defend Democrats as being &#8220;Mostly True&#8221; on everything while savaging Republicans as just the opposite. It&#8217;s not just <strong>Donald Trump</strong>, mind you. It&#8217;s <strong>Ted Cruz</strong>. And <strong>Rick Santorum</strong>. And <strong>Newt Gingrich</strong>. And pretty much anyone who challenges liberal orthodoxy.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2019/07/fact-checkers-find-democrats-are-truth-tellers/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>Adults in the Democratic Party, who seem like flustered parents at an out-of-control toddler birthday bash, have been warning about the public’s perception of them.</p>
<p>U.S. House Speaker <strong>Nancy Pelosi</strong> (D-CA) has reason to worry. The 22 declared candidates for the presidential nomination lean far to the Left.  Which means they represent the center of their now-far-Left party.</p>
<p>The mini-wave for “moderate” <strong>Joe Biden</strong> reflects a desperate pullback from the zany public image fostered by wild-haired Vermont socialist U.S.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2019/05/democrats-lurch-ever-leftward/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>The question is often raised:  Who is Jesus?</p>
<p>As <strong>C.S. Lewis</strong> wrote, the Gospels leave no gray area:  Either Jesus was God Incarnate or a madman for claiming to be so.  Merely being “a good teacher” doesn’t cut it.</p>
<p>The New Testament says that Jesus is not only the Jews’s long-awaited Messiah but the Son of God, who was sacrificed for the sins of the whole world, rose from the dead and grants eternal life to all who believe in Him.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2019/04/drafting-jesus-for-unholy-purposes/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>Universal healthcare, also known as &#8220;Medicare for All,&#8221; is back in the news.  U.S. Senator <strong>Bernie Sanders</strong> (I-VT) is joined in his advocacy of this entitlement program by most, if not all, Democratic presidential candidates, including U.S. Senators <strong>Kamala Harris </strong>(D-CA), <strong>Kirsten Gillibrand</strong> (D-NY), <strong>Elizabeth Warren</strong> (D-MA), <strong>Cory Booker</strong> (D-NJ), U.S. Rep. <strong>Tulsi Gabbard</strong> (D-HI) and former Secretary of Housing and Urban Development <strong>Julian Castro</strong>. According to <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/graphics/politics/policy-2020/medicare-for-all/?utm_term=.d58d98c5a544" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">an article</a> in <em>The Washington Post</em>, all of the major Democratic presidential candidates support &#8220;Medicare for All&#8221; or something else to achieve universal healthcare coverage.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2019/04/healthcare-is-not-a-right/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>The U.S. Constitution says there can be no religious test applied to those seeking office at the federal level (Article 6, clause 3). But lately some on the left are trying to apply a type of religious test against some would-be Trump nominees.</p>
<p>Two years ago, U.S. Senator <strong>Bernie Sanders</strong> (I-VT) raked a Trump nominee over the coals because of the man’s <em>theological </em>views. <strong>Russell Vought</strong>, a nominee to the Office of Management and Budget, attended Wheaton College.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2019/03/what-part-of-no-religious-test-dont-we-understand/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>The Green New Deal (GND) is the Democrat Party’s latest version of the American Dream. The GND is a lengthy list of radical proposals for total transformation of our culture, our economy, our health care and educational systems, our environmental conditions, and on and on.</p>
<p>The GND expands government incomprehensively. No more carbon-spewing airplanes. High-speed rail will take us everywhere. Government-administered universal health care for all but no private insurance (so wait your turn).&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2019/03/the-green-new-deal-myths-and-migraines/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>When <strong>Jussie Smollett</strong>’s account of being attacked first broke at the end of January, I watched with interest but didn’t say anything. It seemed a bit cartoonish: two white guys wearing MAGA hats giving a gay black man a beat down in the middle of Chicago on a night of sub-zero temperatures, yelling racial and anti-gay epithets, dousing him with bleach, tying a noose around his neck and proclaiming, “This is MAGA country!”&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2019/03/the-irresponsibility-of-jussie-smollett/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>If the latest policies advanced by prominent Democrats are any indication, the national party is going over a cliff: outrageous and extreme abortion legislation (enacted or proposed) in New York, Virginia and Rhode Island; the &#8220;Green New Deal&#8221;; U.S. Senator <strong>Cory Booker</strong>&#8216;s meatless society; U.S. Senators <strong>Kamala Harris</strong>&#8216; and <strong>Kirsten Gillibrand</strong>&#8216;s determination to do away with private insurance.</p>
<p>The current slate of Democratic policy proposals are shocking in a number of ways, but one thing that stands out is the staggering ignorance of the proponents.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2019/02/ignorance-first-destruction-next/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[<p><em>Written by Patrick Buchanan</em></p>
<p>After reading an especially radical platform agreed upon by the British Labor Party, one Tory wag described it as &#8220;the longest suicide note in history.&#8221;</p>
<p>The phrase comes to mind on reading of the resolution calling for a Green New Deal, advanced by <strong>Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez</strong>, and endorsed by at least five of the major Democratic candidates for president.</p>
<p>The Green New Deal is designed to recall the halcyon days of the 1930s, when, so the story goes, FDR came to Washington to enact the historic reforms that rescued America from the Great Depression.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2019/02/are-the-democrats-bent-on-suicide/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>When it comes to the most significant moral issues of our time, no one should be surprised by immoral actions of modern liberals. You can be saddened, shocked, angry, disgusted, and the like, but you should not be surprised.  This is certainly true when it comes to the issue of even infanticide.</p>
<p>For decades, Democrats have <a href="https://www.trevorgrantthomas.com/2015/07/untermenschen-language-of-death.html">dehumanized the unborn</a> and argued against protecting the most innocent and helpless among us, even when they escaped death in their mothers&#8217; wombs.  &#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2019/02/infanticidal-democrats-took-their-cues-from-barack-obama/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>The progressive Left is in a panic over the U.S. Senate’s coming confirmation vote on President Trump’s nomination of <strong>Brett Kavanaugh</strong> to the U.S. Supreme Court.</p>
<p>How do we know this? They keep telling us.</p>
<p>In a national conference call sponsored by People for the American Way (PFAW), U.S. Senator <strong>Elizabeth Warren</strong>, Massachusetts Democrat, said, “We’re in the fight of our lives.”</p>
<p>PFAW’s <strong>Marge Baker</strong> echoed Ms. Warren by exclaiming that this is “a critical, critical, critical fight.”&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2018/08/left-claims-the-moral-high-ground-for-what/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[<p><em>Written by Jeffrey Folks</em></p>
<p>Do they really hate ordinary people that much?</p>
<p>Yes, they do.  For liberals, the distinction between the &#8220;dumb masses&#8221; and their enlightened selves renders life meaningful.  Disdain for ordinary folks is not just an ancillary trait of liberalism.  It is fundamental to the its nature.</p>
<p>At its heart, liberalism is a gnostic religion, and the essence of that religion is the believer&#8217;s faith that he possesses the means of changing the world for the better.  &#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2018/02/leftists-versus-the-people/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>
