Springfield truly is YOUR state capitol - visit us any time and be the change you want to see in this state!

A native of Chicago’s South Side, Michelle Obama is a lawyer, writer, and wife of 44th U.S. President Barack Obama. She was the country’s first African-American First Lady, where she worked on initiatives designed to help Americans become more active, eat healthier, and address childhood obesity with her national Let’s Move! campaign.
Effective December 31, 2025, the Donald Trump administration froze $18,500,000 in Full Service Community School Grants across Illinois. And over the past year, the US Department of Education has cancelled hundreds of grants, serving schools from Metropolis to Chicago. Schools that depend on this funding to serve our most vulnerable children.
These are not items on a spreadsheet. These are children, these are our families, and these are real lives. This is not just happening in West Chicago, it is happening from Southern Illinois all the way to Northern Illinois.
Let’s be clear: feeding a hungry child is not political. Providing mental health care is not ideological. Helping a student learn English is not controversial. And offering after-school tutoring is not radical. It is compassionate. It is responsible. And it is necessary.
This is not fiscal responsibility. This is abandonment.
