Resigning from Congress should not allow Members to avoid accountability for allegations as serious as those faced by Matt Gaetz. The Ethics Committee has often released reports on former Members. That's why I'm forcing a vote on the release of the Gaetz Report. casten.house.gov/media/press-...
Earlier this year, I met with LEND DuPage to discuss the state of our schools in IL-06 and what educators and students need for the best educational experience.
This week, we honor World AIDS Day. The President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) continues to accelerate the U.S. HIV/AIDS response and save countless lives.
Last week, I introduced the LNG Public Interest Determination Act of 2024. This legislation would require the Department of Energy to examine impacts on climate stability, consumer energy costs, and environmental justice when considering permits for new liquefied natural gas (LNG) export terminals.
November is National Diabetes Month. I was proud to support the Inflation Reduction Act, which helps Medicare beneficiaries in our district save an average of $490 each year on their insulin.

As I said on @theweekendmsnbc.bsky.social, it remains important to the integrity of the House of Representatives that we not let the Gaetz report be swept under the rug. I'm pushing forward with my resolution to force a House vote on releasing the Gaetz report.
We have to remind the American people that, in the House of Representatives, we care about ethics. That's why I'm pushing for the House to release the Gaetz report.

This morning, I joined community leaders at the groundbreaking for the new 294 interchange in Justice. This project is a great example of state and federal funding working to attract new businesses, create job opportunities, and reduce frustrating traffic bottlenecks in southwestern Cook County.

While I welcome the news that Matt Gaetz is withdrawing from consideration for Attorney General, it remains important that the Gaetz report be made available to the American people.
Given reports that the Ethics Committee will not release the Gaetz report today, I introduced a privileged resolution to require a vote by the full House of Representatives on its release. casten.house.gov/media/press-...

Our service members face far too many unnecessary barriers that limit their ability to consistently vote. I introduced the Military Voter Overseas Technical Enhancement (VOTE) Act to improve access to the ballot for military voters stationed overseas. casten.house.gov/media/press-...
During Transgender Day of Remembrance, we remember victims and survivors of anti-transgender hate crimes and mourn those we’ve lost to violence. Today and every day, we must fight for a world where people can live as their authentic selves without fear of violence.
Today is Education Support Professionals Day. Last year, I was proud to reintroduce the Education Support Professionals and School Support Staff Family Leave Act. This legislation would help expand the FMLA and ensure it covers education support professionals.

🚨 NEWS: I led nearly 100 House Democrats in a letter urging the House Ethics Committee to release the Gaetz report immediately. This information must be made available for the Senate to provide its constitutionally required advice and consent.
