I'm running to protect small business owners like my mom. These businesses are the backbone of our communities, but too often they’re squeezed by rising costs. I'm running to fight for policies that help them thrive.

I’ve been briefed on the storm and tornado damage in the Kankakee area.

My administration including IEMA are in contact with local officials to offer our full support.

Keeping in our thoughts all Illinoisans impacted by the severe weather β€” we’ll be here to help them recover.

When you send someone like Kevin Morrison to Congress, you're not just sending another politician, you are sending the entire village that supported him, and the residents that reside here in the 8th Congressional district. Thank you so much for your support! #Illinois #IL08 #Congress #progressive

No Kings As the president escalates his authoritarian power grab, the NO KINGS non-violent movement continues to rise stronger. We are united once again to remind the world: America has No Kings and the power ...

When our military is fighting a war Americans don't want, secret police are kidnapping and killing our neighbors, and the regime is working overtime to suppress the vote in the midterm elections, silence isn't an option. No Kings Day on March 28 has to be big, loud, and inescapable.

Please join us.

β€œThank God [Afzal] reached out to me,” Morrison said. β€œNo one should need to have an elected official have to further someone’s voice when their constitutional rights are being impeded on. I’m glad I was able to help in this moment.”

β€œWe need transparency, we need accountability and we need to make sure that we are incredibly mindful of the steps we must take as a nation to protect all of our civil rights and civil liberties,” said Morrison.

Officials dispute Illinois woman's claim she was held 30 hours at airport, sent to Wisconsin jail "They have been lying from the very start of this," Cook County Commissioner Kevin Morrison said in his call for a federal investigation.

"It sounds like they are trying to create a cover up. They are seeking not to, have any accountability whatsoever. And I think this is terrifying and concerning to us all," Morrison said. "We need transparency of the facts of what actually occurred."

GOP Rep. Ogles says Muslims β€˜don’t belong in American society’ The Tennessee lawmaker’s post is part of a larger trend of House Republicans leaning on Islamophobic rhetoric.

Rep. Ogles' comment is disgusting, disturbing, and downright un-American.

I stand with the Muslim community in Illinois and across the country.
