Trust in the Supreme Court has cratered. When decisions appear inconsistent, when power goes unchecked, and when accountability is in question, confidence in the courts erodes.
Here’s my Op-Ed on how to fix it:

Donald Trump is holding TSA agents’ paychecks hostage and sending ICE into airports because he wants to pass a voter suppression bill.
TSA agents deserve to be paid. ICE’s lawlessness must stop. The only thing stopping that from happening is the president.

We must modernize our electric grid to lower costs and keep up with rising demand. The Energy Bills Relief Act does this by expanding access to low-cost, reliable energy sources. Learn more at bit.ly/EBRA2026.
Sheldon and Harriet Peck were outspoken abolitionists who provided shelter to freedom seekers along the Underground Railroad. In the face of attempts to erase our history, it's more important than ever to preserve these historic sites. (2/2)
Today, I joined historians, preservationists, and local leaders at the Peck Homestead in Lombard to highlight the importance of historic sites and stories that have shaped our nation’s history. (1/2)
We need an energy policy that lowers costs and protects consumers.
The Energy Bills Relief Act does exactly that.
The bad news is that clock is ticking to tackle rising energy costs and the climate crisis. The good news is that the solution is here.
Expanded access to low-cost, reliable energy is good for our planet and good for your wallet. I introduced the Energy Bills Relief Act to do just that.
Reposted byRep. Sean Casten
🚨 @casten.house.gov and @levin.house.gov just introduced the Energy Bills Relief Act to address rising energy costs by deploying clean energy, putting affordability over profit, and modernizing the grid.
This bill would get the U.S. on the right track and reverse Trump’s disastrous energy policies.
To address skyrocketing electricity costs, I led over 120 House Democrats, alongside Rep. Mike Levin, in introducing the Energy Bills Relief Act.
This is a consumer-focused approach to energy policy that will lower costs, increase reliability, and ensure our electric grid can meet rising demand
NEWS: I’ve earned a 100% score from @LCVoters for my commitment to environmental policies this Congress.
Electricity rates are soaring across the country, and millions of families are struggling to pay their energy bills. Rep. Mike Levin and I have a plan to lower energy costs, put the American people first, and expand access to reliable energy. Tune in tomorrow.
The president continues to make clear that he prioritizes higher prices over making life better for consumers.
We need an energy policy that puts people first, not oil companies.

Senator Chris Van Hollen and I are pushing for answers because the American people deserve transparency. (2/2)

When Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent testified before the House Financial Services Committee last month, he refused to explain where, how, or under what authority he is controlling funds from Venezuelan oil sales. (1/2)
NEWS: According to the Joint Economic Committee, the president's tariffs will cost families more than $2500 this year.
This is why I voted to repeal tariffs. Americans should not have to pay more because of the president's bad economic policy.

I'm devastated by the tragic events at Old Dominion University & Temple Israel in Michigan. Everyone deserves to attend school, practice their faith & live their beliefs without fear of being shot or attacked. We must end the scourge of gun violence and confront antisemitism & hate in every form.
During Women's History Month, I’m honoring the women who helped expand our democracy.
IL-06 holds a special piece of that history, the first woman in Illinois to cast a ballot did so right here in Lombard. I was proud to visit an exhibit on this milestone last year at the Lombard Historical Society
