Elon Musk is an unelected oligarch. Americans deserve answers as to why he was given unrestricted access to the U.S. Treasury payment systems.
This power grab is unprecedented, but my colleagues and I are doing everything we can to try to stop this.

As a scientist, I’m usually all about facts and data—but today I put that aside for the hope of an early spring!
It was great to visit Woodstock’s Groundhog Day celebration this morning. I’m happy to report that Woodstock Willie did NOT see his shadow!
This is only the beginning of Republican attacks against the CFPB. I will continue fighting to preserve the CFPB’s ability to protect consumers and keep our financial system safe.
This success has been made possible by the great leadership at the CFPB, and I want to thank Director Chopra for his tremendous service in driving these achievements.
One of my proudest accomplishments in Congress was helping create the CFPB, which, to date, has returned nearly $20 billion to consumers who were treated unfairly by financial institutions.
There's no way to spin it. Trump's tariffs will increase prices for consumers right here in Illinois—especially at the grocery store and the gas pump.
Not exactly the platform he campaigned on...
Last night's plane crash at DCA is absolutely heartbreaking. My thoughts are with the victims and their loved ones.
I'm grateful to the first responders who rushed to the scene and worked through the night on search and rescue efforts.
Happy Lunar New Year to everyone celebrating in IL-11, across the country, and around the world!
Too late. Yesterday's incompetence confirmed Trump's intentions are as bad as we feared.
I heard from constituents worried about keeping food on the table for their kids. Nonprofits who don't know if they can provide the assistance our neighbors rely on.
We will fight back.
We’re seeing the real-life consequences of Project 2025.
My full statement on Trump's illegal funding freeze.
Great news! Illinois is participating in the IRS Direct File program this tax season.
Simplifying tax returns is something I've been working on since 2010. This program will save taxpayers time and money.
On International Holocaust Remembrance Day, we mourn the six million Jewish people who were killed in the Holocaust.
As we reflect upon this dark chapter in history, we must reaffirm our fight against antisemitism and ensure that the horrors of the Holocaust are never minimized or forgotten.
Delaying funding for research at NIH is reckless.
Our researchers are driving breakthroughs in disease treatment and prevention. Pausing these efforts will risk our progress and allow other nations to outpace us in research and innovation.
If any Member of Congress tried to do something like Trump's meme coin, they would have serious questions to answer.
Fortunately for Trump, he can pardon himself—or have his Supreme Court do it for him.
We must protect our leadership in AI by responsibly regulating this new and high-powered technology.
Our government has a responsibility to protect Americans from the dangers and economic disruption of AI. The fact that Trump revoked one of the Biden Administration's first steps to protect people from AI is not a good sign.
U.S. Capitol Police have our backs every day. I don’t know how my Republican colleagues can look them in the eye knowing they elected a president who has turned his back on them.
These pardons are a slap in the face to the officers who were injured defending our democracy that day.
Today marks Roe v. Wade's 52nd anniversary—and its third since a Trump-packed Supreme Court gutted the right to abortion care.
Health care decisions belong between a woman & her doctor, not extreme politicians or judges. We must fight to restore reproductive rights nationwide.
I’m proud that federal, state, and local officials came together to provide the incentives to make this work for Stellantis and Belvidere, and we will continue doing everything in our power to ensure the factory comes back online as soon as possible.
