					<description><![CDATA[<p><em>Written by Thomas Hampson</em></p>
<p>Governor <strong>JB Pritzker</strong> delivered his eighth consecutive budget address on February 18th. If you closed your eyes and listened, you might have thought you were hearing a man of the people, a defender of the powerless standing up to a tyrannical federal government. He invoked <strong>Abraham Lincoln</strong>, <strong>Frederick Douglass</strong>, and Reverend<strong> Jesse Jackson</strong>. He quoted the great reform governor, <strong>John Peter Altgeld</strong>.</p>
<p>He spoke of empathy, love, and the courage to resist authoritarianism.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2026/02/jb-pritzker-ice-and-the-art-of-selective-outrage/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[<p><em>Written by Dr. S.M. Davis</em></p>
<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>

					<description><![CDATA[<p><em>Written by Dr. Everett Piper</em></p>
<p>The biggest threat to the United States today is not a virus, but rather “virus-shaming.” The greatest challenge the American experiment faces in this dark hour is not our need for safety but our loss of liberty. And the complicity of the church in the wholesale abandonment of this self-evident truth is no less than stunning.</p>
<p>While governors across the nation fall over themselves to break their oath of office, the church remains quiet.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2020/04/greatest-threat-america-faces-during-covid-19-pandemic-is-loss-of-liberty/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>
