🚨 Awake Illinois Turns 5! This week we didn’t just mark 5 years of uncancellable advocacy. We filed 5 new federal civil rights complaints with the @CivilRights & stood at the U.S. Capitol to fight back against the SPLC’s hate machine. This is our mission in action. 🧵⬇️

Few issues make me more indignant than this. How is it that the Biden Administration's open border policies resulted in hundreds of thousands of children being trafficked into the U.S., and there is no national outrage? youtu.be/KCBngd2Comc

Have you ever wondered why @Suntimes, @chicagotribune, @BlockClubCHI, @wttw, & others are always criticizing the police? They need to survive, & the police are their target. With more innuendo & allegations, there are more clicks - disgusting. @CWBChicago @Awake_IL @CitizensBTB

Why does the LGBTQ community insist on having drag performers interact with children?

Replying to @AjayGuptaTweets
Awake Illinois exists to come alongside and mentor families who assert their parental rights. It is SO important for families to DOCUMENT all conversations and discussions with school staff. Documentation and grievance procedures are key for outlining incidents prior to any necessary legal action.

The lawsuit against D300 in Algonquin was fittingly filed on Mother's Day by a loving and concerned Mom who alleges she endured parental rights violations via secret gender support plans and inability to review student records. It is now pending in IL federal court. @AjayGuptaTweets is supporting this case pro bono.

Most bureaucrats are cowards and woke boot lickers.
WATCH: @LoudounSupe Dr. Aaron Spence is a COWARD who dodged every question I asked about why his school district punishes students who don't want transgenders filming other students in their locker rooms. If you can't defend your own policy, you shouldn't be running a school district.

I’m VERY protective of the advocates who launched organizations in 2021. Many of us didn’t know each other yet but we independently knew something was VERY wrong with unlawful mandates, lacking representative government, and a flood of wokism in schools and policy making. We poured our hearts into building grassroots nonprofits from scratch. The SPLC hates all of us. 🤣 These advocates are some of my closest friends. And we’ve stood up to Machiavellian cruelty — together. When orgs steal the work of and/or badmouth these OG advocates, I don’t suffer that foolishness lightly. And if I don’t mention or collaborate with some of these newcomers, there is a reason. Thanks to all of you who give so much heart and hustle to advocacy in this time. PS: Doesn’t this chip look like a heart?

Pritzker is such an entitled bitch.

This is so on brand for Pritzker. He blames Texas governor Greg Abbott for frittering $3B on illegals, leaving no money to negotiate with to keep the Bears. It's never Pritzker's fault. 🎥 @ImMeme0

Moms are awake!
Today’s NAEP results tell an interesting story. Younger students are making gains. Older students still have work to do. (Thanks teacher unions pushing school shut downs- I’m looking at you @rweingarten ) As a mom of three daughters- 9, 12, and 16 I see education from three different vantage points every single day. Parents know when their child is struggling to read. Teachers know what works in their classrooms. Maybe that’s why we’re beginning to see progress when more authority is being returned to states and local communities. 🤔 Education isn’t one-size-fits-all. And when parents have a seat at the table, students benefit. Thank you to @EDSecMcMahon for making education a priority, and to @GorkaKatie and the Civics Education Coalition for hosting today’s discussion. The moms of @Moms4Liberty are paying attention. 🇺🇸👏🏼

This is why our organization has filed TWO Title IX complaints with the @usedgov last year and FIVE this year with the @CivilRights. Permitting males into female spaces in K-12 schools is systemic and statewide in Illinois. Does Title IX not reign supreme? We assert it does.

Facts.
🚨🚨REVOLTING: Chicago public schools promote abortion and work directly with Planned Parenthood to poison the minds of children. America's parents deserve better. America's children deserve better. This morally corrosive garbage needs to be defunded IMMEDIATELY! Thank you @RepJoeWilson!
