AGP Executive Report

Last update: 9 hours ago

Student Loan Lawsuit: Michigan AG Dana Nessel and Gov. Gretchen Whitmer are suing the U.S. Department of Education over a new rule that narrows “professional degree” programs and could cut off federal loans for many healthcare and other critical workers. Heart Health: New cholesterol guidelines are out, with UChicago Medicine cardiologist Tamar Polonsky sharing five key takeaways, including earlier LDL testing for kids and tighter focus on high-risk people. IBD Treatment: UChicago Medicine is building on years of experience with a new oral option for Crohn’s and ulcerative colitis, backed by real-world safety data. Transplant Milestone: Illinois’ first quadruple-organ transplant of its kind helped save a UChicago Medicine patient with cystic fibrosis. Public Safety: A Chicago officer was badly beaten in McKinley Park, with suspects in custody; in West Englewood, a deadly fire killed two adults and two kids and police say an arson investigation is underway. Care Access & Costs: The federal government’s child care funding freeze is hitting Illinois too, with Gov. Pritzker calling it “wrong and cruel.” Local Life: Joliet approved a downtown tattoo studio near City Square, and Illinois Athletics rolled out new 2026 gameday parking routes.
