Education (K-12)
Bill is proud of and grateful for the education that his children received in the public schools of Illinois – and Bill is committed to preserving and strengthening the quality of our schools, community colleges, and universities. And Bill will fight tooth and nail against Trump’s efforts to gut the US Department of Education.
Health care
The next steps forward in our healthcare system must be to promote universal access to coverage by allowing Americans to buy into a public option, and to further expand eligibility and coverage for Medicaid – two policies that Bill has voted for repeatedly and are supported by the overwhelming majority of Americans.
