Danny Davis has worked for decades to improve the lives of Illinoisans. His years of progressive leadership have been such an inspiration for Chicagoans and beyond—his voice will be missed in Washington. Congratulations my friend on an impressive career of service.

My votes tonight reflect my deep frustration with the Netanyahu government’s abject failure to address humanitarian needs in Gaza and send a message to the Trump Administration that it must change course if it wants to help end this devastating war.

Tammy Duckworth@duckworth.senate.govJul 31(source)

Ending this famine is not only a moral imperative, it is also in the best interests of both Israel’s and our own country’s long-term national security. While I have always supported Israel’s right to defend itself and protect the Israeli people, these dire circumstances must end.

Tammy Duckworth@duckworth.senate.govJul 31(source)

Israel’s unacceptable choice to restrict humanitarian and food aid from entering Gaza—for months—is now causing innocent civilians, including young children, to starve to death.

Tammy Duckworth@duckworth.senate.govJul 31(source)

I’ve long pressed the Netanyahu Administration in public and private to take substantive steps to alleviate the suffering of innocent civilians. But conditions on the ground are getting worse, not better.

Tammy Duckworth@duckworth.senate.govJul 31(source)

Tonight, I voted in favor of blocking the Trump Administration from sending more weapons to Israel. Enough is enough.

Tammy Duckworth@duckworth.senate.govJul 31(source)

The SNAP cuts in Trump’s Big, Beautiful Bill hit the very rural communities he promised to protect—killing jobs, closing grocery stores and leaving less food on the table. This is not what America wanted.

Republicans’ food aid cuts will hit grocers in many towns that backed Trump

The GOP’s policy megabill could reshape how people in rural and small towns access food.

Tammy Duckworth@duckworth.senate.govJul 30(source)

Aaaaaand there it is. Privatizing Social Security has been their plan all along. Lying thieves. All of them.

Treasury Secretary Bessent on 'Trump Accounts': "It is a backdoor for privatizing Social Security....That's a game changer."

Medicaid has been a lifeline for 60 years. For new moms. Seniors. People with disabilities. Everyone. Trump and Republicans enacted the largest Medicaid cuts in history— Stealing health care from those most in need to give tax cuts to the richest of the rich. Shame on them.

Tammy Duckworth@duckworth.senate.govJul 30(source)

In Chicago, we've seen a double-digit percentage drop in gun violence this year. If we want to keep up this trend in our cities, we should be investing more in prevention programs—not less. But Trump would rather make our streets less safe. www.reuters.com/legal/govern...

Exclusive: Trump administration slashed federal funding for gun violence prevention

The Trump administration has terminated more than half of all federal funding for gun violence prevention programs in the U.S., cutting $158 million in grants that had been directed to groups in cities like New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Washington, DC, and Baltimore.

When I was bleeding out on a dusty field in Iraq, I didn’t care if the troops rescuing me were trans, gay, straight or anything else. If you’re willing to sacrifice for our nation and can kill the enemy with lethal precision—you shouldn’t be denied the chance to serve. rollcall.com/2025/07/24/b...

Battle over transgender troops reignites on Capitol Hill - Roll Call

Multiple defense bills would cement the Trump administration’s restrictions on health care for transgender military community members.

Tammy Duckworth@duckworth.senate.govJul 27(source)

It is an outrage that there is still not enough aid making it to Gazans in need. And I'm horrified to see innocent civilians being targeted and killed as they try to seek out aid. Rubio needs to address GHF's complicity in the starvation and killing of innocent Palestinians.

Letter by U.S. Senator Van Hollen joined by U.S. Senator Duckworth and her colleagues pressing the Trump Administration for answers on the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF).

The Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 changed lives. But today, 35 years later, Republicans’ Medicaid cuts are attacking hard-won progress— Cuts that will make it harder to access health care, mobility devices and more. Trump is leaving the disability community behind.

Tammy Duckworth@duckworth.senate.govJul 25(source)

Ahead of the ADA’s 35th anniversary tomorrow, I led @democrats.senate.gov in introducing a resolution to send a loud and clear message: Disability rights are human rights. As Republicans kick millions off Medicaid, we’ll never stop fighting to protect the disability community.

Text of Senator Duckworth’s resolution to commemorate the 35th anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act.

NEWS: I reintroduced my EACH Act with @pressley.house.gov to end the Hyde amendment and help lift unjust restrictions to reproductive health care for millions of Americans. As Republicans kick 15 million off health care, Democrats are working to expand access. thehill.com/newsletters/...

Remember when Trump said he'd never do anything to hurt our Social Security? In just seven years, recipients will face an $18,000 cut. Estimated to "at least double the poverty rate of America's seniors." It. Was. A. Lie. www.axios.com/2025/07/24/s...

A new analysis projects a 24% cut to Social Security benefits by late 2032.

Trump's "big, beautiful bill" will cause sharp cuts to Social Security by late 2032, a new analysis says.

Tammy Duckworth@duckworth.senate.govJul 19(source)

Trump and Republicans just gave $4 trillion in tax giveaways to the nation’s most wealthy— Meanwhile millions could wind up paying $700 extra next year just to keep the same plan. Most families don’t have that kind of money lying around. This will cost lives.

Why 22 million people may see a 'sharp' increase in health insurance premiums in 2026

The GOP's so-called "big beautiful bill" cut taxes in some ways but didn't extend a tax break that lowered health insurance premiums for millions of people.

Tammy Duckworth@duckworth.senate.govJul 18(source)

For an Administration that claims to be obsessed with eliminating waste... This is one of the dumbest, cruelest and most wasteful things they've ever done.

Reason: The Trump Administration is spending $130,000 to Burn $800,000 Worth of Food Meant for Hungry Children

Tammy Duckworth@duckworth.senate.govJul 17(source)

Typical Trump Administration. Create chaos. Blame the victim. Repeat. These people will point fingers at Mother Theresa before looking in the mirror.

Tammy Duckworth@duckworth.senate.govJul 17(source)

Let’s be clear: this rescissions package isn’t about saving money.
