					<description><![CDATA[<p><em>Written by Trevor Grant Thomas</em></p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">The trans agenda has proved a tremendous millstone around the neck of the Democrat Party. Deservedly so! This evil ideology is one of the biggest reasons Democrats find themselves sinking in the political sea that is the American electorate. Currently, the Democrats are <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/video/6371772075112">historically unpopular</a>. As the <a href="https://nypost.com/2025/03/16/us-news/democrats-favorability-craters-to-record-low-poll/"><em>New York Post</em></a> put it [recently], “Democrats have become so unpopular that more Americans believe that aliens are among us than agree with the Democratic Party.”&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2025/05/democrats-are-stuck-with-the-trans-agenda/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>[Last] week, the U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee hosted a hearing to discuss the alarming rise of coordinated and centrally funded antisemitism on college and university campuses. While it was illuminating and frightening to hear the testimony of several of the witnesses, the highlight had to be this tour de force by Texas U.S. Senator <strong>Ted Cruz</strong> who, it seems, is not overly impressed with the Hamas-sympathizing Hitler brigades pushing a Holocaust sequel on federally-funded campuses.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2025/03/u-s-senator-ted-cruz-on-campus-antisemitism/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>President-elect <strong>Donald J. Trump</strong> and Vice President-elect <strong>J.D. Vance</strong> will take over [today], relieving the nation of the Biden administration&#8217;s train wreck.</p>
<p>Even many liberals are breathing a sigh of relief. President Biden and his fellow Democrats have done incredible damage to their party. They have turned it into a clown car full of Marxists, sexual radicals and outright lunatics who are good only at ruining entire cities and states. For reference, see San Francisco’s homeless camps, the Los Angeles fires and the Golden State of California under the rule of Gov.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2025/01/trumps-return-signals-end-to-biden-regimes-train-wreck/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>Are you confused by the calls from well-known evangelical leaders like <strong>John Piper</strong> to not vote for <strong>Donald Trump</strong> in November? Everyone but God makes mistakes, but I believe that to boycott Trump because he does not measure up to evangelical standards is a mistake with potentially catastrophic consequences.</p>

<p>To say it was a bad look would be an insult to bad looks.</p>
<p>Over the weekend, <strong>Jonathan Karl</strong>, host of ABC&#8217;s Sunday morning talk show &#8220;This Week&#8221; humiliated himself in a conversation with U.S. Senator <strong>Tom Cotton</strong> (R-AR).</p>
<p>https://twitter.com/BrentHBaker/status/1827707989270102238</p>
<p><span style="color: #ff6600;"><strong>One of the worst sycophantic performances I&#8217;ve seen coming from a mainstream network anchor.</strong></span></p>
<p>I am a fan of Tom Cotton. Consistently, I find him to be measured, mild mannered, affable, and, on the rare occasions where I disagree with him, reasonable and logical in his approach to issues.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2024/08/u-s-senator-tom-cotton-shows-us-how-its-done/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p style="font-weight: 400;">I’ve reached that stage of life that, on occasion, I’m asked for life advice. My best, most succinct answer is this: Follow Jesus and don’t vote for Democrats. The reason for the former part of my statement is widely known, and the reason for the latter is simple: The Democrat Party is one of the <a href="https://www.trevorgrantthomas.com/2014/05/the-devil-and-democratic-party.html">greatest tools of Satan</a> in the world today.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">In spite of this, there is some foolish thing called “Evangelicals for Harris.”&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2024/08/serious-sincere-christians-should-never-vote-for-a-democrat/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>Here&#8217;s the thing I can&#8217;t get over.</p>
<p>If those running our country had instructed <strong>Joe Biden</strong> to duck any debates with <strong>Donald Trump</strong>, an option that would have been utterly defended by both his base and the mainstream press (but I repeat myself) as justifiable &#8211; &#8220;debating a convicted felon only gives him a legitimacy he hasn&#8217;t earned&#8221; &#8211; then Biden would still be the nominee of the Democrat Party heading into November&#8217;s election.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2024/07/the-real-crisis-we-all-should-be-talking-about/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>What with the free-falling Biden fiasco and what’s going on at the national level with our presidential election, it’s pretty easy to lose sight of other important issues we should be talking about. But that’s what happening (temporarily) because something big did happen at the national level. It’s a watershed moment where we’re all paying attention, even as we enjoy our summer. No doubt the presidential election was already a “big” deal and obviously was getting bigger each day as we marched toward Nov.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2024/07/biden-democrats-party-and-landing-a-plane/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>In our day of weaponized government and intolerance for honest speech, it isn’t difficult to imagine a scenario where politicians would willingly relegate our individual freedoms – guaranteed to us in the U.S. Constitution – to the voters in the states to decide what levels of liberty – and restrictions of those liberties – they would allow going forward.</p>
<p>For those of us in blue states, it isn’t a stretch to imagine how this would play out for the Second Amendment.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2024/04/downgrading-the-right-to-life/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>I agree with the articles I’m reading that we need to boldly defend the Pro-Life position, but I have a suggestion for an entirely new strategy to do so. I think this would not only be a winning strategy, but would also strongly win over the black vote. We need to start saying over and over again:</p>
<blockquote><p><span style="background-color: #ffff99;">&#8220;Yesterday&#8217;s Dems supported slavery and today&#8217;s Dems support abortion.  In both cases they were denying that someone was or is fully human.</span></p></blockquote>&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2023/11/democrats-were-pro-choice-for-slavery-too/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a>]]></description>

<p style="font-weight: 400;">With U.S. House Speaker Kevin McCarthy’s release of thousands of hours of Capitol surveillance video footage to <strong>Tucker Carlson</strong>, and Carlson’s subsequent airing of the footage on his popular FOX News show, it’s more clear now than ever: What the American left did to Trump, on COVID, on crime (especially the ANTIFA/BLM riots), at the border, and the like, was <strong><em>FAR</em></strong> worse than anything that occurred at the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2023/03/insurrection-vs-numerous-subversions-of-the-american-left/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>Imagine how amazing things could have been had we woken up last Wednesday morning with Republicans winning 54 seats in the Senate and 250 seats in the House. We’d be off to the promised land, right? Wrong! Actually, from a policy perspective, we’d be in the same place we are today, sans the much-needed introspection that is taking place deep in the souls of conservative politicos – an introspection we’ve needed for decades.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2022/11/the-problem-with-the-republican-party-is-the-republican-party/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[<p><em>Written by Paul Hurst and David E. Smith</em></p>
<p>Illinois Family Action is deeply concerned about the race for control over the Illinois Supreme Court. You should be too. After all, the Democrat Party has held majority control for 53 years. Since the Supreme Court is one-third of the branches of our state government, it’s worthwhile to ask if the Court has served us well in checking abuse in the other branches of Illinois government.  Even a momentary consideration screams a resounding, “No!”&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2022/10/illinois-supreme-court-parental-rights-and-democratic-skullduggery/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>More people than ever realize the media are gaslighting us. But I wonder if they know just how much.</p>
<p>You can lie with falsehoods or you can omit or obscure inconvenient facts. Just watch any “mainstream” media coverage of the Jan. 6 show trial. On second thought, why would you want to?</p>
<p>I thought about all this while reading the “Fact Checker” column by <strong>Glenn Kessler</strong> in <em>The Washington Post</em>.</p>

<p>The wheels of justice sometimes grind very slowly.</p>
<p>Or not at all.</p>
<p>In our current system, it appears that the only thing that matters is which party you belong to.</p>
<p>Corrupt Democrats almost never face punishment for their crimes. It doesn’t matter how glaring the evidence.</p>
<p>IRS official <strong>Lois Lerner</strong> retired with full benefits after getting caught using the IRS to target conservative groups such as tea parties during the Obama years.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2022/01/corrupt-democrats-and-their-fake-justice/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>In the name of “democracy,” Democrats want to get rid of our current system of government.</p>
<p>That’s no small thing, given that the Constitution has held up for 240 years — longer than any other. The founders’ design of a federal republic with representative decision-making and checks and balances has ensured unparalleled freedom and prosperity, unlike “democratic people’s” regimes worldwide.</p>
<p>Some liberals are so angry at U.S. Senator <strong>Joe Manchin</strong>, West Virginia Democrat, for capsizing Joe Biden’s $5 trillion socialist Build Back Better bill that they want to do away with the U.S.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2021/12/the-dark-side-of-the-lefts-tyrannical-democracy/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[<p><em>Written by James E. McNally</em></p>
<p>Opposition to the teaching of a seriously flawed ideology known as critical race theory has drawn the ire of <em>Chicago Sun-Times</em> columnist <strong>Neil Steinberg</strong>. His <a href="https://chicago.suntimes.com/columnists/2021/6/29/22555348/history-racism-critical-race-theory-republicans-gop-schools-teaching-chicago-ali-boxing" target="_blank" rel="noopener">column</a> is riddled with almost as many flaws as the <em>NY Times</em> “1619 Project”, apparently championed by Steinberg, which inanely asserts that the American Revolution was conducted because the colonists feared that Great Britain was about to abolish slavery, a ridiculous charge (among many contained in the document) debunked by serious historians of various political persuasions.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2021/07/neil-steinbergs-flawed-take-on-critical-race-theory/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>Everyone knows President <strong>Joe Biden</strong> ran as a moderate and is governing as a leftist radical, yet we see little evidence of Democrats, including the liberal media, breaking ranks from him. Why?</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve previously written about the lack of Democrats&#8217; dissent from their party&#8217;s undeniable extremism and have always been met with the response that they don&#8217;t dissent because there are no longer any moderate Democrats. Yet when I talk to my Democratic friends, they vehemently deny that they personally are extremists.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2021/05/calling-on-moderate-democrats/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>Because communicating with a real human being at Facebook’s Ministry of Truth is more difficult than talking with your dead uncle at a Madam Blavatsky seance, perhaps this open letter to <a href="chrome-extension://oknpjjbmpnndlpmnhmekjpocelpnlfdi/topics/mark-zuckerberg/">Mark Zuckerberg</a> is in order.</p>

<p>Traditionally this should be a good week for the Democrat Party with their national convention. Traditionally too, the announcement of a running-mate, the <strong>Joe Biden</strong> and <strong>Kamala Harris</strong> ticket, should be a boost. <em>But is it?</em></p>
<p>A new<a href="https://www.cnn.com/2020/08/16/politics/cnn-poll-biden-trump-august/index.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"> CNN poll</a> now shows the presidential race at a virtual tie. President <strong>Donald J. Trump</strong> is down 4 points, but the poll’s margin of error is 3.7 percent, making it a possible tie. In many battleground states Trump is just 1 point behind, according to CNN, <em>no friend of the President</em>.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2020/08/fallout-or-a-boost-from-a-vp-pick/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>Just what kind of cynical game are Democrats playing in keeping <strong>Joe Biden</strong> on their presidential ticket when everyone can see he is slipping? How long can this ruse continue?</p>
<p>The real news is not that Biden is failing. It&#8217;s the Democrats&#8217; fraud in pretending otherwise. They know he is not mentally up to the job, and they&#8217;re trying to ride it out, using the coronavirus as a cover to keep him hidden in the basement and exercising damage control each time he is flushed out.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2020/08/time-for-trump-to-smoke-joe-out-of-his-basement/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>Lately it seems that we conservatives can&#8217;t win even when we&#8217;re winning. But the country is under siege, so we cannot indulge the luxury of being discouraged.</p>
<p>This year has been one body blow after another to the nation we love. First, there was the coronavirus, and we thought, &#8220;How can this get any worse?&#8221; Then came the economic shutdown and the incalculable pain and suffering it brought. Next were the riots, the radicals&#8217; unopposed seizure of a section of Seattle and the maniacal efforts throughout the country to defund the police.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2020/06/the-silent-majority-can-be-silent-no-more/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[<p><em>Written by Robert Knight</em></p>
<p>Two theories are circulating about the origin of the COVID-19 coronavirus.</p>
<p>The media are still selling the idea that it probably arose from an infected bat at an outdoor live animal food market in Wuhan.  That’s also the Chinese Communist Party’s line.</p>
<p>The media don’t want people thinking that communist researchers at the Wuhan Virology Institute’s BSL-4 lab might have been directly responsible.</p>
<p>However, a plausible scenario is that the virus was, indeed, cooked up in the lab.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2020/04/cooking-up-a-viral-moment/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>You know what doesn&#8217;t pass the smell test in the Democrats&#8217; sham impeachment crusade? Their main beef is that President <strong>Donald Trump</strong> abused his power to interfere with a presidential election (2020), yet that&#8217;s all they have been doing for the last three years.</p>
<p>Interference with a presidential election (2016) was also their allegation with the Russia-collusion hoax. Oh, my, how they revere the integrity of the election process.</p>

<p>On April 12<sup>th</sup>, 1961, Russian cosmonaut <strong>Yuri Gagarin</strong> became the first man to leave Earth and orbit in space, and upon successful completion of the mission, a huge reception was held in his honor. At that reception, Soviet Premier <strong>Nikita Khrushchev</strong> reportedly cornered him and asked, “So tell me, Yuri, did you see God up there?”</p>

<p>In September of 2008, U.S. Senator, vice-presidential candidate, and democrat <strong>Joe Biden</strong> was asked his thoughts—“as a Roman Catholic”—on when life begins. Demonstrating a vast ignorance of science, along with an unflattering display of faith, he <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=83A-k0R5EPc">told NBC’s Tom Brokaw</a>, “Look, I know when it begins for me.” A decade later, using the same “<a href="https://www.trevorgrantthomas.com/2018/08/liberals-long-ago-abandoned-idea-that.html">post-truth</a>” relativism, New York Mayor, presidential candidate, and democrat <strong>Bill de Blasio</strong>, after signing a law that allows New Yorkers to declare their chosen gender on their birth certificate, told a cheering crowd, “You be you.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2019/06/democrats-the-post-truth-party/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>At first glance you might think that the Democratic presidential campaign is boiling over with one new idea after another. Free health care. Free education. No more carbon emissions. There have been so many pronouncements, it’s hard to keep track of them.</p>
<p>But that’s just at first glance. If you delve deeper, you will discover these are not ideas at all. They are feelings. Strongly held feelings, mind you. But feelings, nonetheless.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2019/06/the-party-with-no-ideas/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>There was a record-sized field of candidates containing as many women as men. Their surnames ranged from the long familiar to the novel and exotic; they had multiple racial and ethnic backgrounds, and at least one gay candidate was in the running. This sounds like the ever-expanding list of candidates for the 2020 Democratic presidential nomination, but it&#8217;s also a description of the field in last month&#8217;s primary election for mayor of Chicago.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2019/03/chicagos-clues-for-the-2020-democrats/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>Like never before, the American public faces a stark choice in the run-up to the 2020 elections that could not offer a more distinct antithesis in policy – one which would lead to two very different Americas.  The first is based upon the historic Judeo-Christian values that have made our nation great; the second is a sharp repudiation of those values in favor of a secularistic society that is shockingly hostile to people of faith.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2019/03/poles-apart-the-republican-and-democrat-party-platforms-2/" 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 style="font-weight: 400;">The Democrat Party in America has a real problem.  It’s been brewing for some time, but it’s bubbling over at this point and those who would continue shrouding, cloaking, downplaying, or veiling the issue are no longer able to do so.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">The Democrat Party in America has become obsessed with abortion.  Not just attentive, not just involved, not just committed.  They are obsessed with the practice of killing infants in the womb. &#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2019/02/time-for-every-democrat-to-be-asked-these-two-questions/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>All things in life, even good things, have a limit to their utility and a point at which they become liabilities. Think of tasty spices in a dish or other ingredients in a melting pot. Quantities count, particularly over a specific period of time. Immigration is no different.</p>
<p>Recent Census data released from the 2017 American Community Survey (ACS) shows that immigration has grown to shocking, wholly unprecedented levels. Is it too much to ask that we engage in a mature policy discussion after five decades of record immigration with no end in sight?&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2018/09/how-to-fundamentally-transform-a-country/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>Love him or hate him; appreciate his stands or stand against him; for better or for worse; President <strong>Donald J. Trump</strong> is the President of the United States of America—<strong>OUR</strong> president. <u>Denial doesn’t change fact nor does it remove the responsibility</u> of Christians to pray for him and <em>all citizens</em> to respect the office which he holds.</p>
<p>Admittedly, there are times it is hard to know what side of an issue the president will finally land on; but <u>this administration has claimed some victorious moments and—by God’s grace—given this country a reprieve from its quickened downward spiral which had taken place during the last administration</u>.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2017/11/antifa-alert-keep-your-eyes-open-november-4-2017/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>A popular petition at the White House’s petition website calls for an official governmental framing of George Soros as a terrorist. <b><a href="https://petitions.whitehouse.gov/petition/declare-george-soros-terrorist-and-seize-all-his-related-organizations-assets-under-rico-and-ndaa-law" target="_blank" rel="noopener">It reads</a></b>:</p>
<blockquote>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">Declare George Soros a terrorist and seize all of his related organizations&#8217; assets under RICO and NDAA law</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">Whereas George Soros has willfully and on an ongoing basis attempted to destabilize and otherwise commit acts of sedition against the United States and its citizens, has created and funded dozens (and probably hundreds) of discrete organizations whose sole purpose is to apply Alinsky model terrorist tactics to facilitate the collapse of the systems and Constitutional government of the United State, and has developed unhealthy and undue influence over the entire Democrat Party and a large portion of the US Federal government, the DOJ should immediately declare George Soros and all of his organizations and staff members to be domestic terrorists, and have all of his personal an organizational wealth and assets seized under Civil Asset Forfeiture law.</p></blockquote>&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2017/09/petition-declare-george-soros-a-terrorist/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a>]]></description>

<p>Despite the media’s best efforts to attack conservatives and Republicans, it seems the American people aren’t buying it. After three months of wall-to-wall coverage about Russian interference in the election, and a general hostile attitude by the media, 96 percent of Trump’s voters would vote for him again, according to a new <a href="http://www.langerresearch.com/wp-content/uploads/1186a1Trump100Days.pdf">ABC News/ Washington Post poll</a>.</p>
<p>But that’s not even the biggest story to come out of the poll. A staggering number of American voters think the Democratic Party is “out of touch” with “people’s concerns.”&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2017/04/shock-poll-67-percent-of-americans-believe-dems-are-out-of-touch/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>The Democrats, as they are want to do, have put themselves into a logical inconsistency:</p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-lang="en">
<p dir="ltr" lang="en">Liberals on entitlements: &#8220;The Bible says give to the poor!&#8221;</p>
<p>Liberals on gay marriage: &#8220;This isn&#8217;t a theocracy! Keep religion at church!&#8221;</p>

<p><script async src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p>
<p>Indeed, the Democrat Party likes to invoke the Bible only when it comes to imposing their agenda onto the populace; otherwise they sneer at conservatives as <a href="http://www.politico.com/blogs/ben-smith/2008/04/obama-on-small-town-pa-clinging-to-religion-guns-xenophobia-007737">bitter clingers</a>.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2017/03/11-times-the-anti-bible-democrats-cited-the-bible-to-defend-their-big-government-programs/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p><strong>Hillary Clinton</strong> gave a speech Tuesday near Ferguson, Mo., site of anti-police riots inspired by the controversial shooting death of <strong>Michael Brown</strong>. Clinton’s speech at Christ the King United Methodist Church of Christ in the nearby town of Florissant focused on issues of racial and social inequality. “Despite our best efforts and our highest hopes, America’s long struggle with race is far from finished,” she said. “We can’t hide from hard truths about race and justice.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2015/06/hillary-clinton-takes-private-jet-to-give-speech-on-social-inequality/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<div class="entry-body">
<p>While <strong>Sandra Fluke</strong> and the “Abortion Barbie” &#8211; <strong>Wendy Davis</strong> were soundly defeated on Tuesday night and all over the country thrilling Pro-Life victories were taking place, Mammon and Moloch stole the show in Illinois. With <strong>Bruce Rauner</strong>’s victory in the gubernatorial election, there’s a new sheriff in town and he’s not partial to the unborn or to Biblical marriage.</p>
<p>Illinois was the cesspool that polluted the nation with <strong>Barack Obama</strong>, <strong>Hillary Clinton</strong>, <strong>Valerie Jarrett</strong>, and <strong>David Axelrod</strong>, all graduates of the Paul Alinsky School of Soft Insurrection.</p></div>&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2014/11/illinois-gopp-pro-abort-pro-gay-marriage/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a>]]></description>
