Trump and Republicans refuse to fight for American families, but I refuse to give up on them.
I simply cannot vote to do nothing to help protect them from Trump’s vindictive efforts in exchange for a vague promise from the least trustworthy Republican party in our nation’s history.

If Trump believes war is necessary, he must bring his case to Congress and prove why it's worth turning more moms and dads into Gold Star parents.
Let Congress debate. Let us vote. It's our duty.
Time and again, Trump's agents are using excessive force that “shocks the conscience.”
Just this week, they violently tore a teacher—with legal work authorization—from a preschool as children watched on in horror.
I'm demanding investigations. Trump has gone too far.
Today, I voted in support of a resolution that would force Trump to get congressional approval before using military force against Venezuela.
Senate Republicans blocked it—ceding their constitutional authority to Trump.
Once again, they bent the knee to a wanna-be king.
This judge ordered the Trump Administration to release all its SNAP funding by Friday because, in his own words, "Children are immediately at risk of going hungry."
How sick do you have to be to appeal that order?
Our President straight up wants kids to starve.
Armed agents are chasing teachers through preschools. Toddlers are watching in horror.
This doesn't do a damn thing to make us safer.
Trump is going after people with work permits, not the "worst of the worst."
And he's traumatizing our kids for life.
It's Day 36 of the Republican shutdown, the longest in American history.
All because the GOP refuse to work with Democrats to prevent families from paying hundreds extra per month for health care.
And it appears voters agree:
This is a colossal failure in leadership.
The only people refusing to show up to work are House Republicans.
If you are willing to defy court orders to starve 42 million Americans, you have lost your humanity.
Trump needs to follow the law and fully fund SNAP benefits.
NEW: Senator Durbin and I are demanding that Kristi Noem put a stop to DHS arresting people for filming agents attacking their neighbors.
How dare DHS call foul play while it uses taxpayer dollars to record propaganda videos?
It is legal to record. It's called accountability.
As someone who grew up counting every last SNAP dollar, this is intentionally cruel.
Trump has the money to provide full SNAP benefits during the Republican shutdown—and he's choosing to let families struggle.
Hungry children deserve full bellies. Not crumbs.
While Trump spent the weekend golfing on the taxpayer's dime, millions are starting the week unsure how they'll buy groceries without SNAP benefits.
Unconscionable.
Example #3: When Daniel Montenegro tried to film a Border Patrol raid at a Home Depot, agents tackled him, injured his back and falsely accused him of using tire spikes to attack vehicles.
They’re assaulting citizens for documenting their violence.
We need investigations. Now.
Open enrollment starts this week—and millions of Americans are finding out just how much their premiums have skyrocketed after Republicans let ACA tax credits expire.
Make no mistake: the GOP owns this crisis.
They had every opportunity to prevent this fallout and are still choosing not to.
Earlier this month, the Administration publicly stated it had billions in funding to continue SNAP during the Republican shutdown.
Then Trump decided he'd rather let millions of Americans starve.
Today, two federal courts reminded him that it's not his choice.
It’s the law.
Sonya Massey feared for her safety and trusted law enforcement to protect her.
That trust should never have cost her life.
While justice prevailed, this ruling can’t bring Sonya back.
Her legacy lives on as we work to make sure a tragedy like this never happens again.
An Illinois deputy was found guilty of murder in the shooting of Sonya Massey, a Black woman who called 911 asking for help. https://cnn.it/47d9GjC
Let's be clear: Trump has the funding to keep SNAP running. He's choosing not to.
There's even a Republican-led bill to fund SNAP with broad Democratic support. Republican leaders won't let us vote on it.
Deliberately choosing to let families starve is as vindictive as it gets.
Trump would rather build a tacky ballroom for himself than keep kids from going hungry.
Thank you @govpritzker.illinois.gov for supporting our food banks and helping ensure that Illinois families will be able to put food on the table when Republicans won’t.
