With that in mind, I believe that unconditional restrictions on our arms transfers, like those included in the Block the Bombs Act, are now necessary.

Recent ATmosphere posts, sponsorships, and cosponsorships.
I initially supported the Ceasefire Compliance Act, which would have withheld offensive weapons from the Israeli government if it refused to change course in the West Bank and Gaza. Netanyahu refused.
NEW: I am officially a cosponsor of the Block the Bombs Act.
Donald Trump is wrecking American science. His anti-science policies are pushing America's top minds—like Nobel Prize-winning chemist Omar Yaghi—to take their talent elsewhere, strengthening our competitors.
Trump's score is now negative one on Nobel Prizes.

Proud to see Illinois help lead the nation in AI safety, and I commend @govpritzker.illinois.gov for signing these guardrails into law.
It's long past time for Congress to get off the sidelines and pass comprehensive AI legislation.
Trump promised peace on the campaign trail. Instead, he dragged us into a war that Congress voted to stop and the American people do not want.
Now he's calling his own ceasefire "over." More strikes will endanger our troops and bring more economic pain to Americans here at home. We need diplomacy.
My office is now accepting internship applications for the fall semester at both my Illinois and DC offices.

Happy Independence Day, Illinois! This year, we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the founding of our great nation.
The United States is a beacon of hope, prosperity, freedom, and equality around the world. Today, we celebrate our country as we continue to fight for a more perfect union.
I joined Atomically Speaking to discuss everything from U.S.-Iran nuclear negotiations to the critical role our national labs play in shaping America’s nuclear future. Check it out here!

While you’re paying more for gas, groceries, and health care, Trump and his family raked in over $2 BILLION last year—with more than half coming from profits tied to his crypto schemes.
A staggering display of corruption and self-enrichment.

If you need help with a federal agency, don't hesitate to call my office at (630) 585-7672 or visit foster.house.gov/services/hel....
The numbers are in! So far this year, my office has returned $1,260,537.12 to constituents and resolved 516 cases involving federal agencies. Swipe to read a constituent testimony about receiving assistance with the IRS.
Republicans' attempt to overturn this defining feature of our nation is shameful. I am proud to represent a large immigrant community in my district, and I will continue fighting to protect them.
The Constitution is abundantly clear: if you are born in the United States, you are an American citizen. I'm glad to see the Supreme Court reaffirm this today.
Chapter 12 farm bankruptcies in April were up 130% from the year prior.
Farmers in Illinois and across the country are staring down a farming crisis. Congress must act to help our growers regain access to their export markets and bring down costs for fuel and fertilizer.
Democrats and Republicans came together to pass legislation to lower housing costs, increase housing supply, and stop Wall Street investors from buying up single-family homes. Now, Trump is refusing to sign it.
Earlier this week, I stood alongside my colleagues with a clear message: Sign the bill.
It was an honor to celebrate Juneteenth last weekend with so many people across the community!
If Congress is serious about finding fraud, we can start with the Trump's attempt to spend hundreds of billions on a Golden Dome—an idea that has been proven scientifically unfeasible.
Today marks four years since Roe v. Wade was overturned.
Reproductive health care belongs between a woman and her doctor—not politicians. We will keep fighting until Roe’s protections are restored and every woman has the right to make her own health care decisions.
