At today’s town hall, Veterans told me they’re worried about their healthcare. Worried about delays, disruptions and services being defunded.
The Trump Administration is leaving our heroes behind.
I’m showing up and fighting back.

No matter what anyone says, trans Americans make our military, our communities and our entire nation stronger.
On this International Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia and Biphobia, let’s choose love and reject hate wherever we may see it 🏳️⚧️
Every day, brave Americans put on our nation’s uniform and sacrifice to protect our freedoms here at home and abroad.
On this Armed Forces Day and every day, we owe them our deepest gratitude.
Trump is asking for 20,000 National Guardsmen to help with immigration enforcement on U.S. soil—
Yet another gross misuse of our military for his own partisan benefit and a dangerous distraction from their core mission:
Keeping our country safe.

I fully support transgender Americans and their rights—always have, always will. I did not meet with this group and my team never accepted an invite to meet with this group. I’m not sure who you spoke to, but it does not reflect my values.
While Americans feel the squeeze of Trump's economy, Republicans are trying to gut Medicaid, Social Security, SNAP—the programs that help them get by.
GOP cuts won’t lower costs. They’re making room for tax breaks for billionaires.
They'd rather you struggle than the rich pay their fair share.
How dare Donald Trump abandon our Afghan allies.
We made a promise to our Afghan interpreters that we'd keep them and their families safe after they fought with and sacrificed for our troops.
This is a complete betrayal.

Trump calls the Qatar Royal Family’s luxury jet a “free gift”—but experts warn American taxpayers will be forced to pay over $1 billion to convert Qatar’s “Palace in the Sky” into a secure Air Force One.
This isn’t a deal. It's a disaster.

"We have absolutely felt the impact of the chaos all around us. We’re already losing people."
Trump's VA cuts are disrupting routine visits, cancer trials and life-saving transplants.
And our Veterans are paying the price.

Trump's budget would cut almost $2.5 billion in funding dedicated to preventing flooding, removing contaminants like lead and ensuring communities have safe, reliable water.
This would not "Make America Healthy Again".
It would make us sicker. news.bloomberglaw.com/environment-...
There's no such thing as a $400 million "no-strings-attached" gift.
While working to slash Medicaid coverage for millions, Trump also celebrated Mother's Day by preparing to take the mother of all bribes.
He wants to sell our foreign policy and sell out our people.
Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms, grandmas and mother-figures out there! If you haven’t heard it enough, thank you for everything you do to be the peace and calm in life’s daily chaos.
Mom to mom, we’re all doing our best—and we’re in this, together 💐
As if being a new parent wasn’t already tough enough, Trump’s tariffs are making the cost of trollers, cribs, car seats and toys skyrocket.
Families deserve better.
Shameful.
From helping Chicago kids with autism to becoming the first African American and woman named our nation's top librarian, Dr. Carla Hayden has dedicated her life to expanding access to knowledge.
She earned this role and has done an incredible job.
Only someone as incompetent as Hegseth would brag about ending a program that Trump signed into law and falsely claim it’s a "woke" Biden initiative.
Every combatant commander—including Trump's current Joint Chiefs Chairman—agrees this program makes us more lethal.
Smh.
$90 million.
Trump fired thousands of Veterans to "save money," but wants taxpayers to pay $90 million for a military parade on his birthday. What a disgrace.
Illinoisans can be proud that the first American Pope calls our state home.
I'm hopeful that Pope Leo XIV will build on the leadership of Pope Francis and continue his push for a more accepting, inclusive world as so many look to him for hope, love and guidance.
If you shoot straight, hate the enemy and want to protect and defend our country—you should be allowed to serve.
And as DOGE cuts continue, the VA Employee Fairness Act would restore collective bargaining rights for VA health care professionals so they can speak out freely against any problems they’re facing at the VA.
This Admin cannot continue to slash and burn the VA in the dark.
VA Secretary Collins may promise to rehire VCL workers he wrongfully fired, but here's the bottom line: He should be transparent with Congress.
The Protecting Veterans in Crisis Act would require him to report to Congress before any cuts to VCL are made.
