Illinois has expanded compensation for the wrongfully convicted, raising the cap to $50,000 per year imprisoned and, for the first time, including children. This law recognizes what many families already know, wrongful convictions cause real, lasting harm that deserves accountability.

NEW: Oklahoma Refuses to Payout Million Dollar Settlement to Man after being wrongly convicted. Henry Jamerson’s $26 million record breaking settlement with the City of Tulsa came after a lawsuit detailed allegations of evidence hiding by TPD. Under Oklahoma state law, there's a provision for folks to get paid by the state for the time they wrongfully served. "Under state statute, Mr. Jamerson’s entitled to $50,000 a year for every year that he’s been wrongfully imprisoned through the State of Oklahoma," said Attorney Dan Smolen.

🚨DEMOCRATS DELIVER BIG RESULTS: Illinois Governor Pritzker has just BALANCED the budget for the EIGHT consecutive time in his state. It prioritizes affordability for working families without raising taxes on working people. That includes $400 payments to Illinois families kicked off of SNAP by the Trump administration. This is EXACTLY how Democrats should lead - in a way that centers the working class as the federal government strips resources and funding from states. This is HUGE.

Today, I'm calling for the Two-Child Benefit Cap to be removed at the earliest possible opportunity. It's a Conservative policy that has kept too many families in poverty for too long, and scrapping it would lift thousands of children above the line.

The gun industry has a perverse interest in preserving gun violence. Today Students Demand Action launched a new campaign to empower young people—who have grown up experiencing lockdowns and daily gun violence—to expose the gun industry’s #KillerBusiness for what it is. The gun industry rakes in $9 billion each year while we pay the price. Despite fueling a public health crisis that is the leading cause of death for American children and teens—the gun industry continues to fly under the radar and skirt accountability for the harm, death and trauma its products cause. Are you good with that?

Actor Alan Ritchson on Trump: "Where are the Epstein files? This is the law—they must be released. Are we going to remain silent? This bastard has the nuclear codes. He's literally pursuing 13-year-old children. He should be imprisoned. "That bitch has the nuclear launch codes. He's involved with 13-year-old children. Man, what? He should be in prison."

Today's emergency hearing against Jerome Powell was the first step in bringing real transparency and accountability to the failed institution that is the Federal Reserve. My team and I at @InvestAzoria are grateful for the support from Americans who know this fight won't be easy—but know that it's worth it. Every worker, retiree, and business owner deserves to know what the Federal Reserve is actually doing. Our fight is just getting started.

The history of Illinois has always been shaped by Black Illinoisans. It's why in 1865, we led the nation on this day as the first state to ratify the 13th Amendment. And now, we're forging a path for the future that recognizes our past and builds a better world for all.

Thousands of jobs lost. Up to 50,000 children affected. Low-functioning autistic children and their families will now be left without support because of Tim Walz. Thank you Laura Ingraham for highlighting the real victims of Minnesota’s fraud crisis. We need accountability.

I am deeply alarmed by reports of mass graves in Gaza. Independent investigators must be allowed immediate access. The families of the dead have a right to know what happened. The world has a right to accountability for any violations of int’l law that may have taken place.

The March for Life matters because it reminds our nation that every life has inherent, inestimable value. In just one year of Republican leadership, we’ve delivered historic pro-life legislation that puts families first: ✅ Defunded Big Abortion ✅ A bigger Child Tax Credit ✅ Stronger Adoption Tax Credit ✅ Trump Investment Accounts for every newborn ✅ The largest middle-class tax cut in history This is only the beginning — during America’s 250th year, we will keep turning this movement into real, lasting results for families and for the right to life.

Every child deserves the opportunity to thrive, no matter where they live. The Educational Choice for Children Act empowers families to choose the education that best fits their child’s needs, opening the door to brighter futures and better outcomes. It’s time to put students FIRST. Congress must act now and send this bill to President Donald J. Trump’s desk so school choice becomes a reality for families in every state!
