Brighton, Fosterburg and Medora received federal funds to improve their water and waste infrastructure, totaling more than $5.6 million. These investments will help ensure families get safe and clean drinking water out of their tap.
A local family farm received a federal grant to build a solar array. This money is helping them save on their energy bills and become more energy independent!
Last year, 15 small businesses across Madison, Macoupin, Macon and Piatt Counties received a combined $2.5 million in grant funding to bring more renewable energy production online, lower costs and reduce harmful carbon emissions.
This morning, millions of Americans saw rural.gov go down—a key site for accessing funding to create jobs & invest in infrastructure. #IL13 received $23M in rural development grants in 2024. It’s back up now, but we can’t afford to lose it again. Here's why🧵
155 years ago, the 15th Amendment was ratified, a pivotal moment in history that granted Black men the right to vote.
Equal access to the ballot box is fundamental to our democracy - let's keep working together to protect it.
Congratulations to the graduates of the Workforce Investment Solutions Pre-Apprenticeship Program in Decatur! Apprenticeships are truly transformative and I'm excited to see more and more Illinoisans take advantage these programs! www.wandtv.com/news/pre-app...
If tariffs are being proposed as a way to support American workers & manufacturing, I’m all ears.
But with the Trump Admin offering limited details, I’m concerned this will mean increased costs for folks at the grocery store and strains on the agricultural economy in IL-13.
If you have an encounter with an immigration enforcement agency like ICE, know your rights.
I teamed up with the second graders at Hazel Dell Elementary to spread joy, love and gratitude to the heroes in our community. You can join us by making Valentine's Day cards for #IL13 veterans, military members and first responders! Learn more at: https://buff.ly/4ghZTKd
Happy Black History Month! This month, we celebrate the countless contributions Black Americans have made to our country, culture and democracy – including many inspiring Black leaders from Central and Southern Illinois.
Black history *is* American history.
School choice diverts your tax dollars away from your kid's public school. Proper funding for our public schools means better outcomes for students -- and that isn't something I'm willing to put at risk. www.nbcnews.com/politics/don...
Federal funding is essential – it prevents kids from going hungry, helps families afford housing, aids communities recovering from natural disasters and much more.
I plan to make sure our communities see these critical dollars.
I enjoyed touring SIUE’s National Corn-to-Ethanol Research Center today, where I got to learn about their work to develop new biotechnologies – including the first hand sanitizer made from corn-based ethanol!
I am praying for the loved ones of the 64 American Airlines passengers and crew, and the three Army soldiers who lost their lives in last night’s horrific crash in DC.
Thank you to the first responders who continuing to work the scene of this terrible tragedy.
This is a big win and we're going to make sure it's delivered to this community.
Unlike what the Trump Administration may think, disaster aid isn't reckless spending. Any attempt to rescind this funding would be illegal.
I’m heartbroken following the updates about the airline crash in DC. My thoughts are with those on board and their families, anxiously awaiting answers.
Thank you to our first responders on the ground.
I was thrilled to help St. Clair County secure $89.5 million in disaster relief as our communities continue to recover from the devastating storms last summer.
I will keep fighting back against the Trump Administration’s efforts to slash critical federal funding like this aid.
I had the best time with second graders at Hazel Dell Elementary making Valentines’ Day cards for #IL13 veterans, military members and first responders! Our heroes deserve to know how much we appreciate them.

My casework team helped Salt & Light Ministries in Urbana recover more than $650,000 that they were owed from the IRS. It was great to visit Salt & Light this week to learn how this money will support their work helping families in need!
