Our membership will be determining our strategy for the next few years between now and Inauguration Day. But we can promise you one thing: We aren’t going to let a Republican administration have their way in Chicago without a fight, and you shouldn’t either.

With a little more than one week left to go before the fundathon ends, we have crushed our original goal and raised $3,386 for the Chicago Abortion Fund! We are so grateful for all the support our members, neighbors, and friends have shown for abortion care access.

Spectacular news: Alderwoman Leni Manaa-Hoppenworth has co-sponsored a city council resolution calling for the release of Mahmoud Khalil, an activist, green-card holder, and political prisoner that the Trump administration is trying to deport for his pro-Palestine advocacy!

Thank you to Alderwoman Manaa-Hoppenworth for standing up for Mahmoud, whose abduction represents an attack on everyone's rights. If we want the resolution to get a hearing in the Rules Committee, we will need as many city council representatives as possible to support it.

If you live outside of the 48th Ward, message your alderperson and ask them to support R2025-0015954! And if you do live in our ward, keep contacting federal representatives like Senator Tammy Duckworth to demand Mahmoud Khalil's release!

If you live in the 48th Ward, Rep. Schakowsky and Sen. Durbin have already called for him to be released. Please call to thank them for denouncing Mahmoud’s kidnapping, and tell their colleague Sen. Duckworth to speak up!

Supporting our team will help patients with the cost of travel, childcare, and related expenses. As nearby states like Missouri, Iowa, and Indiana continue to restrict abortion care, it is more important than ever that we make sure Illinois preserves access to it.

We cannot allow any of our neighbors to be held hostage by Republicans in DC. Join us in Seneca Park this Saturday at 1PM to demand that Lurie Children’s Hospital stand up for trans Illinoisans and continue to provide gender-affirming care. mobilize.us/indivisiblechica…
Institutions like Lurie Children’s Hospital must fight to make Illinois safe for our trans neighbors. Join us and like-minded organizations this Saturday to demand that they continue to offer life-saving, life-affirming care.
