I was heartened to see nearly 2,000 people out today, despite the 16-degree weather, standing together to honor Alex Pretti and Renee Good and to speak out against ICE.

The administration must stop these operations before anyone else is hurt or killed.
Another person has been killed by ICE in Minneapolis. This violence is beyond disturbing, and it’s the predictable outcome of poorly trained agents carrying out operations designed to intimidate and terrorize our communities.
A productive conversation about AI's impact on the global economy and America's role in the future should have been Trump's focus, not his weekly grievances.
His mindless aggression over Greenland is distancing us from our NATO allies, and his reckless tariff threats are ceding our global economic leadership.
This past week at Davos, Trump’s incoherent rambling was an embarrassment to the United States, a gift to Russia and China, and an insult to everyone who has ever fought for democracy and freedom.
Severe winter weather and extreme cold are expected in Illinois this weekend. Avoid unnecessary travel, look out for your neighbors, and stay warm!

I will be voting NO on the DHS funding bill. Read my statement here.
Illinois families paid $1,781 more last year as the cost of food, housing, health care, and utilities continue to rise.
Republicans control the House, the Senate, and the White House. This is a result of their lack of focus on bringing down costs.
This morning, I joined my colleagues on the Financial Services Committee in front of the Supreme Court to stand up to Trump as he continues his assault on the Federal Reserve's independence.
The Supreme Court still hasn't issued their ruling on Trump's out-of-control tariffs. This is the same court that stalled accountability for Trump’s January 6 election interference.
These aren’t minor disputes; both cases concern presidential abuse power. Every delay benefits Trump.
It has officially been one year of Trump back in office. He swore that by today, electricity bills would have dropped by 50 percent.
Not only did he fail to deliver on that promise, electricity bills have gone up.
Today we honor the life and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
His contributions to civil rights continue to inspire our work toward a more perfect union.
Trump is needlessly risking our credibility with our allies over his Greenland nonsense. Proud to cosponsor @keating.house.gov's bipartisan bill to reaffirm NATO unity.
Tonight I introduced the bipartisan No Funds for NATO Invasion Act, prohibiting the Trump administration from invading the territories of any NATO ally. Story: https://www.politico.com/live-updates/2026/01/12/congress/house-lawmakers-introduce-bipartisan-nato-bill-00723206

Trump’s tariffs pushed household budgets to the brink last year.
This year, the costs are set to only climb.
Manufacturing employment has declined every month since Trump announced his tariffs last April.
Instead of boosting domestic manufacturing like he said he would, Trump has successfully done the opposite.

Attacking the Federal Reserve endangers the American economy.
The Trump administration must drop their sham investigation and quit their assault on the Fed's independence.
Senate Republicans just blocked the bipartisan, House-passed bill to extend ACA tax credits for three years. My constituents are facing outrageous premium hikes for 2026. Read their testimonies on how Republican inaction is affecting them.
Americans do not want to go to war with Venezuela.
I just signed onto the War Powers Resolution that would prevent military personnel from being deployed to Venezuela without Congressional approval.
Speaker Johnson must bring this up for a vote immediately.
My statement on Trump's "investigation" of the Federal Reserve.
