					<description><![CDATA[<p><em>Written by Alyssa Sonnenburg</em></p>
<p>It is unfortunately unsurprising that yet another school district in Illinois has defied the clear privacy and safety protections that <a href="https://www.ed.gov/laws-and-policy/civil-rights-laws/title-ix-and-sex-discrimination" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Title IX</a> puts in place.</p>
<p>Illinois School District 203, located in Naperville, is currently in the spotlight for allowing a biological male to participate in the female’s track meet.</p>
<p>Not only was the biological male allowed to participate in this athletic event, but he (surprise, surprise) <em>won the track meet</em>.</p>
<p>This should, of course, come as no surprise to those of us who acknowledge a basic biological fact which states that biological males have distinct physical advantages over biological females.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2025/05/illinois-school-district-defies-title-ix-again/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>You may have heard by now that Loudoun County, Virginia, school officials are at it again.</p>
<p>In May 2021, they covered up a girl’s rape in a high school restroom by a boy wearing a skirt and sent him to another high school, where he assaulted another girl.</p>
<p>The first girl’s dad was thrown to the floor, handcuffed and arrested when he refused to shut up about it at a school board meeting.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2025/05/democrats-cant-seem-to-give-up-the-transgender-madness/" 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>Why do so many women, a majority of them, support <strong>Joe Biden</strong>? Is it because of his abortion stance?</p>
<p>There was a surge of support for him in 2022 after the U.S. Supreme Court’s <em>Roe v Wade</em> decision. Is that the reason? Are women so committed to the “my body, my choice” mantra of the left that they can’t see beyond this issue?</p>
<p>I don’t understand.</p>

<p>First Liberty and legal experts around the country are sounding the alarm about the Biden administration’s recently proposed changes to Title IX.</p>
<p>Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 is a civil rights law that protects students from discrimination based on sex in education programs or activities that receive federal financial assistance. It was signed into law to give female athletes equal opportunity and treatment in sports, from elementary schools to colleges.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2024/05/title-ix-revision-threatens-religious-liberty-for-thousands-of-students/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>Illinois legislators are hard at work creating a sexless society. Using sex-neutral terminology, they are creating and changing legislation to remove any distinction between males and females. Moreover, they are trampling on advancements in our society for women’s rights and lawful protections, while endangering some of the most vulnerable members of our society.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2023/05/illinois-legislators-are-creating-a-sexless-society/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[<p><em>Written by Laurie Higgins</em></p>
<p>Recently the <em>Wall Street Journal</em> Editorial Board published a searing <a href="https://www.wsj.com/articles/illinois-shocking-report-card-reading-math-grade-level-decatur-teachers-school-board-11664722519" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><u>indictment</u></a> of the abject failure of Illinois to educate its children, citing statistics from Illinois’ <a href="https://wirepoints.org/poor-student-achievement-and-near-zero-accountability-an-indictment-of-illinois-public-education-system-wirepoints-special-report/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><u>Wirepoints</u></a>. The board writes,</p>
<blockquote><p><span style="background-color: #ccffff;">No one thought Illinois schools were a shining beacon in the education landscape, but we didn’t know how truly awful so many of them are. A new report by Wirepoints using the state’s data shows that an epidemic of indifferent instruction and social promotion has left children unable to perform at even the most basic educational level.</span></p></blockquote>&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2022/10/illinois-disastrous-leadership-making-headlines-again/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a>]]></description>

<p>Historically, even when conservatives appear to be temporarily winning on some issue, it’s really a sign of losing ground long-term to every leftward shift of the Overton window of politics. For example, as we temporarily appear to be winning on one cultural onslaught of the left, it’s only because we long ceded the <em>previous</em> battle, leaving leftists with new territory to claim, which they inexorably do. However, there are signs that with the transgender obsession, the Overton window might be shifting to the right – for the first time ever!&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2022/07/conservatives-are-finally-winning-a-culture-war-time-to-double-down/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[<p><em>Written by Dr. Everett Piper </em></p>
<p>On Tuesday, Sept. 24, 2019, U.S. House Speaker <a href="https://www.washingtontimes.com/topics/nancy-pelosi/">Nancy Pelosi</a> announced a formal impeachment inquiry of President <a href="https://www.washingtontimes.com/topics/donald-trump/">Donald Trump</a> for allegedly asking the Ukrainian president to investigate <a href="https://www.washingtontimes.com/topics/joe-biden/">Joe Biden</a>. U.S. House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy responded: “Facts be damned. Democrats are insisting this is their moment to impeach President <a href="https://www.washingtontimes.com/topics/donald-trump/">Trump</a>. Speaker <a href="https://www.washingtontimes.com/topics/nancy-pelosi/">Pelosi</a>’s decree changes nothing.”</p>
<p>And, thus, without even intending it, Mr. McCarthy just stumbled into what will be the campaign slogan for the Democratic Party from now until November 2020.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2019/09/denial-of-reality-could-become-a-democratic-campaign-slogan/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>
