Just one day after the anniversary of the Parkland shooting, we are faced with another devastating mass shooting in Aurora, IL. My heart goes out to the families, friends and loved ones of the five employees who lost their lives yesterday and I am so thankful to the brave first responders who risked their lives to take down this shooter. Gun policy change is long overdue.

Today, the Illinois House of Representatives passed the minimum wage bill that will raise the minimum wage in Illinois to $15 over the course of the next 6 years and give 1.4 million Illinoisans a well-deserved raise. This is a long-awaited victory for many who have been fighting this battle for decades. Next, this bill will move to Governor JB Pritzker’s desk where he is expected to sign it.
