Tonight, I voted no on the continuing resolution. Read my statement here: casten.house.gov/media/press-...
On Veterans Day, we honor our nation’s veterans and continue working to ensure that they receive the care and benefits they deserve.
This morning, I attended American Legion Post 80’s Veterans Day Celebration in Downers Grove.
Members of Congress have the distinct privilege to honor veterans who served during the Vietnam War era.
Know a Vietnam-era veteran who would appreciate a pin? Call my Lombard office at (630) 520-9450. Pins will be distributed on a first come, first serve basis.
According to a report from the Joint Economic Committee, Illinois households are facing a 15.2% increase in electricity costs this year. President Trump has always put the interest of energy producers over energy consumers, and every American is paying the price. www.jec.senate.gov/public/_cach...
No one should fear showing up to work and no child should ever have to witness this downright evil act. I continue to advocate for the Protecting Sensitive Locations Act to ensure our schools and child care centers remain safe spaces and free from this kind of cruelty.

TOMORROW: My office will be hosting a U.S. Military Service Academy Information Fair at 6:30 pm at the Elmhurst Public Library. Register here: www.eventbrite.com/e/military-s...
Open enrollment through www.healthcare.gov has officially begun.
Thousands of Illinoisans will be faced with impossible decisions about their health insurance, all because Republicans would rather keep the government shut down than extend critical tax credits.
President Trump’s decision to only partially fund SNAP is cruel.
Instead of using the full USDA contingency fund, President Trump has chosen to starve children and families across the country.

For the first time in American history, SNAP funding will lapse on November 1. Nearly 2 million Illinoisans will have their food assistance benefits ripped away. This number includes veterans, children, and families.
President Trump is choosing to let Americans starve.
Earlier this month, I joined a discussion about flood mitigation with Lyons Township and the Metropolitan Water Reclamation District of Greater Chicago.
Not using contingency funds to keep SNAP going is a policy choice. President Trump has decided to take food assistance away from 42 million Americans.
