1/8 Friends who vote in IL- 7: I recommend Dr. Thomas Fisher to you for Congress & ask your vote. There are many good candidates among the 13 running to replace retiring Rep Danny Davis. But our district deserves a true national leader, a generational talent like Tom. @tfishermd.bsky.social

Losing jobs as this admin shreds the already tattered safety net makes suffering inevitable. Restore SNAP and Medicaid. Stop this pointless war.

This promising study shows an mRNA vaccine cured the worst breast cancer in 10/14 people. RFK Jr’s anti-vaxx positions undermine science and threaten cancer cures. He’s dangerous. We deserve better.

Editorial: Dr. Thomas Fisher for 7th Congressional District The Chicago Tribune Editorial Board endorses Dr. Thomas Fisher for 7th Congressional District, to succeed the retiring Danny Davis.

From the Editorial Board: In the endorsement business, it is both rare and heartening to be genuinely excited about a candidate for Congress.

We feel that way about Thomas Fisher, an emergency room doctor at University of Chicago Medicine, a former White House fellow.

Alex Pretti, 37, was an ICU nurse at the VA. He cared for his neighbors when they were sick and stood up with them against ICE. A healthcare worker who defends his community….. ICE cannot be retrained or reformed. It must be abolished.

Dr. Thomas Fisher: The human cost of Congress’ inaction on health care There is a human cost of letting Affordable Care Act subsidies expire. Hundreds of thousands of people will lose coverage.

"President Donald Trump and the Republicans in Congress...can step up to protect millions of people, or they can keep holding our health care hostage and leave a body count....We need leaders who will act like lives are on the line. Because they are."

In the ER, I see the suffering that results from policy decisions — people sick and injured because our policies don't value our lives.
I’m running for Congress to change that. Join me in building a government that heals: thomasfisherforcongress.com

As federal aid shrinks, communities try new ways to tackle child poverty on their own After Congress ended extra cash aid for families, local efforts aimed to fill the gap. In Flint, Michigan, Rx Kids gives cash aid to every family for a baby's first year. Will it work elsewhere?
