I joined newly-appointed President and CEO Lanita Higgs-Jackson and the team at Pillars Community Health in La Grange Park to tour their health center and discuss federal funding challenges, including harmful reductions to Medicaid.
Earlier this week, I checked out Wheaton Drama, a volunteer-based community theater. I learned about their history, partnerships with local schools, and their inclusive efforts to reach the entire community.
I had the incredible opportunity to visit Westview Hills Middle School in Willowbrook to speak with 7th- and 8th-grade students. We enjoyed a thoughtful conversation about civic engagement, public service, and the issues they care most about.
I had the honor to speak at the American Legion Post 80 Memorial Day Service in Downers Grove.
We remembered and honored the brave servicemembers who made the ultimate sacrifice for our nation. Their courage will never be forgotten.
Today, I joined the Westmont Fire Department, Mayor Nero, and community members for the groundbreaking ceremony of Fire Station 183.
The Westmont Fire Department responds to 5,000 calls per year, and the new station will expand the department’s ability to efficiently address emergencies.
A family in Palos Park was trying to settle their mother’s estate with the Department of the Treasury.
After waiting nearly 10 months, they reached out to my office and my team was able to step in and advocate on their behalf.
Are you having trouble with a federal agency? Reach out to my office.
The president was convicted of falsifying business records.
Now his wealth is surging through crypto ventures and Republicans won’t say whether sanctioned actors are funneling money through them.
If this were a Democrat,Republicans would already be demanding hearings.
The silence says everything.
Republicans entered this legislative week planning to fund Trump’s billion-dollar ballroom and hand another blank check to ICE and Border Patrol. Instead, they descended into chaos and ended the session early.
Imagine if Congress focused on the American people instead of Trump’s wishlist.
House Republicans' proposed budget does nothing to lower the high cost of living for Americans.
Instead, it gives ICE and Border Patrol another $70 billion, with no direct oversight.
I want to hear from you: Should Congress use your tax dollars to give ICE additional funding?
Alongside my Democratic colleagues I was proud to pass the ROAD to Housing Act, a piece of legislation that addresses our nation’s housing crisis and makes the American Dream of owning a home a possibility for millions of working families.
Instead of lowering costs for working families, Donald Trump is funneling $1.8 billion in taxpayer dollars through the DOJ into a slush fund designed to benefit his political allies.
I recently joined the Chicago River Clean Up Day at the Lucas Berg Nature Preserve in Worth and the Cal Sag Channel in Crestwood with the Metropolitan Water Reclamation District.
Keeping our local waterways clean is vital to protect our region’s most important natural resources.
Reforming the Supreme Court is not a partisan issue, it is a constitutional issue. We have to ensure all three branches of government respect the balance of power laid out in the Constitution.
Don’t miss out on the opportunity to join me this evening for my webinar on voting rights with Rep. Robin Kelly and special guests, including the Southern Poverty Law Center.

Yesterday, I attended American Legion Post 991’s Memorial Day Service in Worth. I was honored to lay a wreath at the Eternal Flame at Veterans’ Memorial Park to pay tribute to the brave servicemembers who gave their lives in defense of our nation.
REMINDER: I'm hosting a webinar on Monday at 7 PM CT with Rep. Robin Kelly and special guests, including the Southern Poverty Law Center, to discuss voting rights.

Today, in the wake of the Supreme Court's decision in Callais, I'm fighting for voting rights.
As my late colleague Elijah Cummings used to say, we are better than this.
Maria reached out to my office after unsuccessful attempts to obtain her work authorization card from USCIS. My team stepped in to resolve the issue, because no one should have to navigate government red tape alone.
Having trouble with a federal agency? Reach out to my office, we’re ready to help!
In the wake of the Supreme Court’s decision in Louisiana v. Callais, I’ll be hosting a webinar next Monday at 7 PM CT with Rep. Robin Kelly and special guests to discuss voting rights.
Register to learn more about the decision and hear what comes next.
