					<description><![CDATA[<p><em>Written by Tim Graham</em></p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;"><strong>Associated Press</strong> reporters were blunt about their latest poll:</p>
<blockquote>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">&#8220;Americans actually agree on something in this time of raw discord: Joe Biden is too old to be an effective president in a second term.&#8221;</p>
</blockquote>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">In the poll, fully <strong>77%</strong> said <strong>Biden</strong> is too old to be effective for four more years, as he would turn 86 in the White House. Naturally, <strong>89%</strong> of Republicans agreed — but so did <strong>69%</strong> of Democrats and, most importantly for the general election, <strong>74%</strong> of independents.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2023/09/joe-bidens-age-will-be-an-issue-in-2024/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>Did you know that debating issues in Congress is part of the culture war and is bad for democracy?</p>
<p>That’s what <em>The Washington Post</em> (motto: “Democracy Dies in Darkness”) implied in its front-page story after the Republican-led House approved the National Defense Authorization Act in a 219-210 party-line vote.</p>
<p>The bill authorizes an $886 billion defense budget and rolls back some of the Democrats’ schemes aimed at turning America into a Marxist version of Sodom and Gomorrah.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2023/07/yes-the-culture-war-is-real-and-democrats-started-it/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>The U.S. Supreme Court recently announced it will hear <em>303 Creative LLC v. Elenis</em>, a free speech case that could have major implications for religious liberty. This is a case being handled by our friends at the <a href="https://adflegal.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Alliance Defending Freedom</a>.</p>
<p>It involves <strong>Lorie Smith</strong>, a Christian web designer from the Denver-area who declines to create wedding websites for same-sex couples, because of her religious beliefs. The case is expected to be heard during the Court’s next term, which begins in October.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2022/03/scotus-case-of-colorado-web-designer-has-big-implications-for-religious-liberty/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[<p><em>Written by Peter Heck</em></p>
<p>There were more than a few storylines to track after one of the most intransigent liberals in the history of the U.S. Supreme Court, <strong>Stephen Breyer</strong>, announced he would be stepping down at the end of this term.</p>
<p>First, the timing of the announcement seemed suspect. Justices have historically waited much later in the term to declare such an intent (Kennedy, Souter, O&#8217;Connor). That early timing led to widespread speculation that Breyer likely gave the White House the courtesy of a wary heads-up to avoid them being taken off guard and allow them to give a full and proper vetting of potential replacements.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2022/02/wait-wait-david-axelrod-is-complaining-about-the-nature-of-our-times/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>James Madison once <a href="https://press-pubs.uchicago.edu/founders/documents/v1ch16s23.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" data-ol-has-click-handler="">wrote</a>, <em>&#8220;</em>Government is instituted to protect property of every sort&#8221; and that &#8220;conscience is the most sacred of all property.&#8221; Yet just before July 4 weekend, the U.S. Supreme Court, by denying an appeal in an important religious liberty case, has essentially abrogated both property and conscience rights, as well as the right to use one&#8217;s own property in accordance with deeply held religious beliefs. So much for self-evident truths, inalienable rights, and the institution of government to secure these rights.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2021/07/justices-kavanaugh-and-barrett-deal-crushing-blow-to-religious-liberty/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>At issue in this case is a Mississippi law that bans most abortions after a baby&#8217;s 15th gestational week.

<p>Trump&#8217;s election was a seismic blow to the left, which has paralyzed it with hatred and reduced it to a gigantic mob of bloated self-importance and radical opposition.</p>
<p>Have you ever heard congressional Democrats pay such homage to the Constitution?&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2019/12/pelosis-democrats-unite-and-catalyze-the-gop/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>The leaders of six pro-life organizations issued a public statement on Friday criticizing the 8 Republican state senators who joined the Democrats this past week to pass the “Equal Rights” Amendment (ERA).</p>
<p>In the letter, the pro-life leaders mention that left-wing U.S. Supreme Court Justice <strong>Ruth Bader Ginsburg</strong> has admitted that the “intended scope of the ERA is to greatly increase the scrutiny of pro-life legislation.”</p>
<p>A vote for the ERA is a vote for overturning abortion restrictions and enshrining abortion rights in the U.S.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2018/04/pro-life-leaders-withdraw-support-from-pro-life-state-senators-that-supported-the-era/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p><em>How appropriate it was that President Obama delivered his farewell address from Chicago, the crime capital of America &#8230; for it is indeed his crime against a humble group of nuns that will be forever etched in many people&#8217;s memory.</em></p>
<p>I was unable to watch <strong>President Obama&#8217;s</strong> Farewell Address last Tuesday night delivered appropriately in the crime capital of the country, Chicago, Illinois.  That didn&#8217;t break my heart because I found myself indifferent to the spectacle for a number of reasons.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2017/01/the-one-act-that-defined-president-barack-obama/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p><em>Written by John Biver</em></p>
<p>Here’s a recent headline from the Washington Examiner: “<a href="http://www.washingtonexaminer.com/just-4-in-10-confident-vote-will-be-counted-accurately/article/2605492" target="_blank">Just 4 in 10 confident vote will be counted accurately</a>.” In the article, <strong>Paul Bedard</strong> reports that some “elections experts have raised questions about the accuracy of computerized voting systems.” One expert even admitted “that manipulating the total vote count in states is ‘child’s play.&#8217;”</p>
<p>Bedard cited a recent study:</p>
<blockquote><p>Americans are almost evenly divided over what constitutes the more significant problem with U.S.</p></blockquote>&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2016/10/photo-id-fraud-prevention-or-voter-suppression/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a>]]></description>

<p><em>By J. Matt Barber</em></p>
<p>President <strong>Barack Obama</strong> has done lost his mind. He’s just flushed the civil rights of men and women, boys and girls, to pee in peace and shower without having naked, sexually confused or sexually predatory members of the opposite sex ogling them, or intentionally exposing their genitalia for a cheap thrill.</p>
<p>Reports Fox News:</p>
<blockquote><p>“The Obama administration has sent a letter to every public school district in the country telling them to allow transgender students [meaning students pretending to be the opposite sex] to use bathrooms and locker rooms that match their chosen gender identity, as opposed to their birth certificate.</p></blockquote>&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2016/05/obamas-coed-bathroom-madness/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a>]]></description>

<p>Last week the Illinois Senate voted <a href="http://illinoisfamily.org/110files/uploads/2014/05/ERA-Senate-Vote.pdf" target="_blank"><span>39 to 11</span></a> to pass <a href="http://www.ilga.gov/legislation/98/SJRCA/PDF/09800SC0075lv.pdf" target="_blank">SJRCA 75</a>, the dangerous Equal Rights Amendment (ERA), the effort to amend the U.S. Constitution to say: “Equality of rights under law shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or any State on account of sex.”</p>
<p>This legislation is now in the Illinois House for consideration and debate.  State Representative <strong>Lou Lang</strong> (D-Skokie) is the chief sponsor.  </p></div>&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2014/05/nine-reasons-to-reject-equal-rights-amendment/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a>]]></description>
