Under existing law, there’s a loophole where surviving families are denied the VA burial allowance if their loved one chooses to spend their final days in the comfort of their own home, instead of a VA facility. That’s just wrong. I’m proud to introduce legislation to permanently fix this injustice.
🚨Big win!
The House just passed key reforms to rein in Pharmacy Benefit Managers (PBMs), lower prescription drug costs, and protect independent pharmacists. After pushing for these bipartisan measures, I was proud to cast my vote and bring them one step closer to becoming law.
Today is the 53rd anniversary of Roe v. Wade. How are House Republicans celebrating? By voting on bills to further ERODE reproductive freedom and push their extreme, anti-choice agenda.
It’s time to restore Roe and codify reproductive rights for all.
I just voted against sending additional funding to ICE. Here's why.
We had a deal on the table to allow the year-round sale of E15, but House Republicans couldn’t get out of their own way.
At a time when markets for Illinois farmers are being decimated by President Trump’s trade wars, they deserve better than this uncertainty.
Inflation cost Illinois families $1,781 in 2025. Working people are paying the price for President Trump’s disastrous economy.
The bond between veterans who served together is something few outside the military can fully relate to. My bipartisan VET Connect Act would create a secure, privacy-protected database to help veterans reconnect with each other, strengthening support networks and community.
🚨 BIG NEWS 🚨
I was so excited to call our local leaders and share that I'm bringing home $27.8 MILLION in funding for our communities.
A new study just found that American companies and consumers are the ones paying the price for President Trump’s reckless tariffs. This is a disastrous, America-last policy.
On the campaign trail, Trump pledged to bring costs down “on day one.” Instead, families spent $1,600 MORE last year because of inflation.
That’s what happens when you put billionaires over working people.
For rural communities in Central and Southern Illinois, the Postal Service is critical to stay connected. Last week, the House passed three of my measures to push back against USPS plans that will worsen existing delivery delays that my constituents are facing.
Today, we honor the Reverend Martin Luther King Jr.’s incredible life dedicated to fighting racism and standing up for civil rights. Now more than ever, we must be unwavering as we carry on his legacy and work to realize his dream of justice, equality, and opportunity for all.
Last month, I brought together seniors from across the district to write letters advocating for the Older Americans Act - an important law that authorizes programs like Meals on Wheels which help folks live independently & age safely at home.
This week, I dropped their messages off in the Senate!
I’ve signed onto the No Secret Police Act and the Stop Excessive Force in Immigration Act to ban ICE agents from hiding their identity and restrict their use of violent tactics. They must be held accountable for these actions that endanger our communities.
It was great to meet with Alton Steel CEO Chris Ervic last week to talk about how we can work together to support good-paying manufacturing jobs, as well as opportunities to invest in renewable energy!
I refuse to let corporations take advantage of working families. Learn more about why I sent a letter to Family Dollar and Dollar General to demand answers about their deceptive pricing practices 👇
The folks on the frontlines of this crisis shouldn’t have to worry that the federal government will pull the rug out from under them.
Let’s be clear: this funding never should have been cut in the first place. Too many people in this country are struggling with mental health and addiction because they can’t access the care they need.
When the Trump administration abruptly SLASHED funding for thousands of addiction and mental health programs across the country, I joined 100 colleagues in a letter demanding that they reverse course. It’s a huge relief that our pressure worked and this critical funding has been restored.
