Trump's incoherent ramblings at today's news conference will only fuel suspicion around the world that this was all about seizing Venezuela's oil, and nothing about supporting freedom and democracy.

It is hypocritical for Trump to claim this operation is about stopping the drug trade after Trump pardoned former Honduran President Juan Orlando Hernández who was convicted of serious drug trafficking charges.
Nicolás Maduro is a brutal dictator who stole an election, but our Constitution does not give the President the authority to conduct a premeditated act of war and pursue regime change without Congressional authorization.

My reaction to the U.S. attack in Venezuela (1/2)
Merry Christmas, Illinois! I hope everyone has a joyful and safe holiday spent with loved ones.
This isn’t the win Sec. Bessent thinks it is. Bond rallies often mean investors are worried.
Farmers are struggling because Trump's tariffs have cut them off from their export markets—and a $12 billion, taxpayer-funded bailout is not going to solve that problem.
It’s been an honor representing Illinois’ 11th Congressional District for another year!
Take a look at my 2025 Year in Review:

Taxpayer-funded buildings and programs are a public trust—they shouldn’t be used to stroke someone’s ego or line their pockets. I will be introducing legislation that would prevent federal sites and programs from being named after federal officials who are using their name for commercial purposes.

House Democrats are forcing a vote to prevent health care costs from skyrocketing. Here's what that means.
NEWS: House Democrats—along with a handful of House Republicans—are forcing a vote to extend ACA subsidies and prevent a worsening health care crisis for millions of Americans.

The national unemployment rate is now at 4.6%—the highest point in over 4 years.
The recent jobs report is a concerning sign for the country and a clear indictment of Trump's handling of the economy.

Wishing all those who celebrate a very Happy Hanukkah filled with peace, light, and joy!
I just introduced the No Cost Educational Resources Act—a bill to use existing grants to make textbooks free and online for college students.
