If the Republicans’ Big Ugly tax package becomes law, hospitals will close and our communities will suffer. Here’s how:

As I’ve said before, there is absolutely no place in this country for political violence. We must be a nation that values civility and mutual respect – always. (3/3)
I want to again send my condolences to the family of Rep. Melissa Hortman and her husband Mark. I will continue to keep them as well as State Senator John Hoffman and his wife Yvette in my prayers. My deepest sympathies go out to their families, friends, and the entire Minnesota community. (2/3)
On Sunday, I was informed by Capitol Police that my name was included in the Minnesota murder suspect’s notes 🧵(1/3)
President Trump just issued an executive order that would allow doctors to deny veterans care based on political views. This isn’t just unethical — it’s un-American. We will fight to protect every veteran’s right to care.
For 13 years, #DACA has transformed lives and strengthened our communities. I’m proud to cosponsor the American Dream and Promise Act because it’s time to give Dreamers permanent legislative protections. #HomeIsHere
Happy Father’s Day to all the amazing dads in #IL13 and across the country! We are so grateful for your support and unconditional love.
I am horrified to learn that MN Rep. Melissa Hortman and her husband have been killed and MN Sen. John Hoffman and his wife remain hospitalized after a targeted shooting. Violence is absolutely never acceptable and I urge everyone to stay safe as law enforcement works to apprehend the shooter.
The best way to make policy is to talk to the folks who feel the impacts in their daily lives. That’s why @newdems.bsky.social members are getting out of DC and hitting the road for important conversations on affordability, energy, the care economy and much more. #NewDemsOnTheRoad
President Trump’s budget proposal for USDA is woefully inadequate. On top of slashing ag research and food assistance for families, it cuts critical conservation dollars proven to help farmers. I questioned USDA Secretary Rollins about why she’s leaving our farmers out in the cold.
I’m proud to join @repdarrensoto.bsky.social in introducing a resolution honoring the victims and survivors of the Pulse Nightclub shooting and reaffirming our opposition to hatred and violence in all forms.
Nine years ago, 49 people were murdered in the tragic shooting at Orlando’s Pulse Nightclub. I join millions across the country in mourning the victims of this hateful attack and standing in solidarity with the LGBTQ+ community that continues to recover.
The power of the purse belongs to Congress - not the President. I'm deeply disturbed to see House Republicans vote to freeze $9.4 billion of already-approved funding at Trump’s request. Their decision to abdicate their responsibility as lawmakers & hand the president even more power is wrong.
This is appalling. A sitting U.S. Senator was just thrown to the ground and handcuffed for asking a question.
I stand with Senator Padilla and everyone brave enough to seek accountability. Interrupting a press conference isn't a crime and peaceful protest is a fundamental right for all.
Congressional Republicans are pushing to hand out massive tax breaks to billionaires on the backs of workers. That includes cuts to clean energy programs that support millions of good-paying union jobs. I gathered friends from LiUNA, IBEW, and the Iron Workers to say HELL NO!
RFK Jr. just fired EVERY member of the CDC’s immunization advisory committee – the experts who make sure vaccine guidance is safe and effective. This is an outrageous decision that endangers public health.
President Trump wants to shut down Urbana’s Agricultural Research Service Lab – a move that would hurt Illinois farmers and compromise decades of critical research. I sent a letter with @mcbride.house.gov & @repmarktakano.bsky.social urging the Appropriations Committee to stop these dangerous cuts.
Last night, Congress came together to honor the memory of Sarah Milgrim and Yaron Lischinsky, who were tragically murdered outside of the Capitol Jewish Museum. We must continue to stand up against antisemitism and hate in all forms.
When 16 million people lose their health insurance because of Republicans’ Big Ugly Bill, hospitals will be forced to take on billions of dollars in uncompensated care and many will close their doors. Americans seeking care deserve better.
June is Alzheimer’s & Brain Awareness Month, a time to shine a light on brain health and show support for the Alzheimer’s and dementia community. Grateful to advocates who stopped by my office to share their stories and talk about their legislative priorities to #ENDALZ!
