Trump gave Elon Musk full access to the government’s payment system with no warning or explanation. I'm fighting back as a cosponsor of the Taxpayer Data Protection Act to put a stop to Elon Musk's invasion of our privacy.
Did you know that Harlem Globetrotters CEO Mannie Jackson grew up in Edwardsville and graduated from the University of Illinois? Although he was born in Missouri, #IL13 is proud to call this inspiring athlete and businessman one of our own! #BlackHistoryMonth
These funds have been legally obligated. The Trump Administration can't just rip them away.
Working with our community to secure this funding was one of my proudest achievements — I will do everything I can to see these projects through.
Every American deserves access to high-quality health care — no matter where they live. I’m proud to re-introduce the bipartisan Rural America Health Corps Act to help rural communities recruit and retain health professionals.
It was great to meet with the new IDOT Secretary Gia Biagi and talk about important infrastructure projects in Central and Southern Illinois! In Congress, I will keep working to protect funds that will improve transportation for Illinoisans.
President Trump promised to support working people. This is him actively defying that promise and extinguishing their voice.
It’s time for Congress to take action to lower prescription drug costs. My BLOCKING Act would take on drug monopolies that drive up prices and allow cheaper, generic options to enter the market.
Elon Musk has no real understanding of the struggles working people face. Their jobs are not social media gimmicks — they’re the foundation that allows Americans to feed their families, afford life-saving medications, and support their loved ones.
Today, we #GoRed to raise awareness about heart disease, learn about risk factors and celebrate survivors!
I've heard from so many people in Central and Southern Illinois who are concerned about Elon Musk's power grab.
I'm hosting a telephone town hall next Tuesday from 5-6pm CT to answer your questions and check in about my work to push back. Dial 855-531-1091 to join.
To celebrate #BlackHistoryMonth, I'm highlighting Olympic medalist and East St. Louis icon Jackie Joyner-Kersee! Jackie is not only a trailblazing athlete, but also a tireless advocate for children’s education, racial equity and women’s rights.
To all employees impacted by ADM's layoffs, there are assistance workshops available.
WHEN: 2/13 and 2/14 from 10-12 PM and 1-3 PM
WHERE: 757 W. Pershing Road, Decatur, Illinois
The workshops will help connect impacted workers with services available to them. To learn more, click here:
Two days later and Rural.gov is still not functioning.
Is this standing up for working families and lowering costs?
Right now, millions of Americans are scared their livelihoods are at the whim of an unelected billionaire. I joined 154 members demanding answers from Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent about Elon Musk's access to the government's payment system and our constituents' confidential information.
Every day, my office hears from veterans who are struggling to access the benefits they’ve earned due to confusing processes and complicated paperwork. I'm proud to introduce bipartisan legislation with Rep. Tom Barrett to make the VA’s communication with our veterans clearer.
Thanks for stopping by my office, President Lee! It's always great to talk about how we can work together to support students at Blackburn College.
I'm proud to cosponsor @connolly.house.gov 's Saving the Civil Service Act that would block President Trump from implementing Schedule F – a policy that would make it easier for him to fire public servants who disagree with him.
I came to Congress to fight for working families. The best way to do that is through a tax code that prioritizes the needs of working people by investing in workforce training programs, reducing tax burdens on workers and supporting new markets for Illinois farmers.
I always love meeting with Special Olympics Illinois and I'm proud to work with them in Congress to build a more inclusive world! Their programs have given countless kids the opportunity to play, compete and grow – including my nephew Noah!
