St. Louis is an essential partner to communities here in #IL13. It was great to meet with Mayor Cara Spencer to talk about how we can keep working together on behalf of our constituents!

It was great to visit the SIU School of Medicine today! We talked about how their work will be impacted by cuts to federal health care dollars and I had the opportunity to learn more about the important Alzheimer’s research being done by SIU scientists.
@afscme.bsky.social members are the backbone of our communities, working hard to make sure the government works for everyday folks. As the Trump administration tries to weaken organized labor, I stand proudly with unions like AFSCME to say hell no.
Changes to Head Start eligibility in the Big, Ugly Bill are going to hit families hard – especially in rural communities. I was glad to welcome @Hakeem-Jeffries.bsky.social to Springfield last week to talk about how Democrats are standing up to protect Head Start and defend our children’s futures.
Today, my team is hitting the road for our monthly traveling office hours! Stop by in Monticello, Staunton, Carlinville, and Cahokia Heights to learn about how we can help you navigate the federal government.
Do you want to learn more about how my team can help you navigate the federal government? We’re hosting office hours across Central and Southern Illinois tomorrow to answer all your casework questions. Hope to see you there!
I’m so proud to announce that my office has been selected as the winner for “Excellence in Congressional Management” by the Congressional Management Foundation. My team’s hard work has allowed us to accomplish so much for #IL13 – and we’re just getting started.
SNAP-Ed at Illinois Extension has been instrumental in combating food insecurity and helping families live healthy across the state. The loss of this program because of Republican SNAP cuts is truly devastating.
For too long, countries like China have flooded our markets with cheap combat boots that meet the standards for aesthetics, but not for quality.
My BOOTS Act would ensure service members are wearing American-made footwear — keeping them safe and supporting jobs here at home.
I've helped secure over $485K in REAP funds so folks in IL-13 could install solar and cut energy costs. Now, Secretary Rollins has canceled the program — a devastating blow to farmers and local businesses trying to save. Our communities deserve better. www.reuters.com/sustainabili...
I ran for Congress because I believe in the power of community. That includes all of us – not just those who have lived here for generations, but also those who chose this country.
The Trump administration’s claim that Social Security is a “Ponzi scheme” couldn’t be more wrong. It’s a benefit that our seniors have earned – and in 90 years, Social Security has never missed a payment.
Happy Back to School Month #IL13! I’m proud to be fighting for a strong public education system, and I hope all our students, teachers, and parents have a great school year!
I’m excited to announce that my bill to codify the Veterans Experience Office at VA has become law! By making this office a permanent fixture, VA will be able to continue centering the feedback of veterans, families, survivors, and caregivers and improve access to services.
Federal clean energy tax credits are helping lower costs and create good-paying jobs right here in IL-13 — but time is running out for families and businesses to take advantage. From solar panels and heat pumps to EVs, you can see what savings are available to you here:
President Trump knows that unions give federal workers the power to stand up to him — that’s why he’s made it his mission to eliminate them.
From food safety inspectors at USDA to VA nurses who care for our vets, we’re going to keep standing up against these attacks.
It was great to participate in the Global Aerospace Summit hosted by Leadership Council Southwestern Illinois! We talked about sustainable aviation fuels, workforce development, and ways to grow Central and Southern Illinois as a leader in the aerospace sector.
It was great to join IBEW and Ameren to talk union jobs, clean energy, and permitting reform at the annual LAMPAC Conference! Thanks for having me!
Yesterday, @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social and I heard directly from Springfield families about how they’re going to be impacted by cruel cuts in the Big, Ugly Bill. House Democrats will always stand up for our children's future – and that starts with defending programs like SNAP and Head Start.
This week marked the 2nd anniversary of the Honoring our PACT Act! So far, this historic legislation has helped over 1.1 million toxic-exposed veterans and survivors get the benefits they deserve – and it’s not too late to apply! Visit VA.gov/PACT to submit your claim today.
