The federal government’s proposed changes to Head Start will significantly hurt our low-income families by stripping program funding, child healthcare services and dual-language learning.

For more information on the Federal Proposed Rulemaking for Head Start programs and how they’ll affect our community, visit the Federal Register at: https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2026/08/07/2026-16134/reducing-federal-burden-for-head-start-programs.

Congratulations to a handful of our local schools for receiving Illinois Student Assistance Commission’s Recognition of Excellence!

College becomes more affordable and accessible for young adults when schools take an active, hands-on role in guiding students through the financial aid process.

That’s why last year, I voted to pass House Bills 3096 and 3097, now law, ensuring every Illinois high school has a FAFSA point of contact available for students to seek support during their school day.

⭐️Students in all Illinois high schools can take advantage of this now. FAFSA applications for the 2027-28 school year are OPEN! ⭐️

Certified Surgical Technologists play an integral role in operating rooms by ensuring patients are in the safest hands possible.

That’s why I’ll continue honoring these dedicated health care professionals and their educators, whose life saving work is often overlooked.
