The cuts to clean energy tax credits in the Republican tax package take us in the wrong direction. Eliminating these incentives will hurt the union workforce and force families to pay even more to keep the lights on.

Energy prices are way too high, and we need an all hands on deck approach to lower costs for families and small businesses. That means investing in biofuels and bringing more clean energy online so that we produce more of our power here at home – not overseas.
Too many veterans fall through the cracks during the transition from active duty to civilian life. From housing and employment to mental health services, we need real improvements. I was glad to hear from experts today about how we can make transition assistance programs work better for our vets.
If the Republican tax package becomes law, 10.9 million Americans will lose their health insurance, emergency rooms will be overwhelmed, and hospitals will close. Whether or not you are on Medicaid, these cuts will affect your access to health care.
Granite City has been producing steel for 128 years—that’s 128 years of sweat, strength, and skill passed down through generations. These workers deserve a seat at the table and real commitments that Granite City will see investment as part of the Nippon Steel deal.
I’m proud to be an original cosponsor of the Women’s Health Protection Act – critical legislation to guarantee access to reproductive care and codify reproductive rights for Americans nationwide.
It’s been three years since the Supreme Court ruled to roll back reproductive rights with their devastating Dobbs decision. As a member of the @reprocaucus.bsky.social, I’m fighting every day to restore the protections of Roe and ensure reproductive freedom for all.
In 2025, reliable internet isn’t a luxury – it’s a necessity. It was great to join @RepAprilDelaney.bsky.social for our fourth #NewDemsOnTheRoad stop where we talked about solutions to expand broadband access and keep our rural communities connected.
Praying for the safety of all our troops in Qatar, Iraq and across the Middle East.
Republicans in Congress are trying to roll back clean energy tax credits – a move that would eliminate thousands of good-paying union jobs and raise energy costs for American families. I joined IBEW, LiUNA, and the Ironworkers in calling out this betrayal of working people.
Since the 988 Lifeline was created 2 years ago, more than 1.3 million people have reached out to its specialized LGBTQ+ youth services for help. Ending this program will cost lives. We’re going to keep fighting back against President Trump’s attacks on the LGBTQ+ community.
Today, I stood alongside Granite City @steelworkers.bsky.social to demand a seat at the table. This community has been sidelined for too long, and President Trump’s Nippon steel deal must include the investments Granite City needs to keep its proud steel legacy alive.
The Republican tax package is the most regressive bill in decades. This bill raises incomes for the top 10% while the poorest Americans lose out.
Congratulations to Natasha O’Brien, from Springfield High School, for winning the 2025 Congressional Art Competition! I was excited to welcome Natasha and her family to the U.S. Capitol, where her art will be displayed for the next year.
I’m proud to serve on @democrats-veterans.house.gov, where improving VA services for our veterans is my top priority. Last week in committee, I advocated for my bills to expand STEM scholarships for veterans, to address VA health staffing shortages, and to expand mental health outreach for vets.
Chancellor Jones, thank you for your years of dedicated leadership and hard work on behalf of University of Illinois students, faculty, and community. I wish you all the best in your next chapter.
Happy Juneteenth! Today, we mark the end of our nation’s darkest chapter and celebrate the resilience that has defined the Black experience throughout American history. Let’s continue to work together to ensure America lives up to its promise of freedom, justice and equality for all.
I’m excited to announce $485,477 in federal funding for three #IL13 businesses to install solar panels! This investment is a win-win that will help them lower their costs while bringing more clean energy online.
As Vice-Chair of Policy for the New Dem Coalition, I know that Democrats need to craft a forward-thinking agenda that inspires. Check out my op-ed about how our #NewDemsOnTheRoad tour will help solve the problems that are keeping people up at night.
