Trump said he would end wars and lower costs. He did the opposite. His reckless actions against Iran have brought more death, more chaos, and more pain in the Middle East, throwing the world into a period of uncertainty and instability.
During National Public Health Week, we honor the Black nurses and doctors who strengthen our communities every day. Their leadership, cultural expertise, and commitment to equity are vital to a healthier future for all.
As food costs spike because of inflation, Trump’s budget slashes WIC, taking food out of the mouths of pregnant women, mothers, and children. This is a vile act against American Families. I am continuing the fight to lower the costs of groceries.
Donald Trump’s reckless war is costing Americans billions of dollars every day as food, healthcare, and gas prices skyrocket. Trump and Republicans need to focus on the American affordability crisis instead of wars.
@HouseDemocrats.bsky.social tried to force a vote to rein in this war in Iran. Shame on Republicans for not even recognizing us to offer the War Powers Resolution. They’ve forfeited our Congressional power to a man who started a costly war and spouts vile threats to annihilate a whole population.
Trump wants to cut the EPA's budget in half. This would make it much harder to ensure that all Americans can breathe clean air and drink clean water, risking people's health across the country. You have the right to clean air & water.
Guns are the leading cause of death for kids and teens. Gun violence is absolutely a public health crisis. Sustained community violence intervention funding strengthens trusted local programs, reduces harm, and helps youth thrive. Public health isn’t complete without safety.
Illinois families buying insurance on the ACA exchange are now paying 26% more than last year after Republicans let enhanced premium tax credits expire. Enrollment is already slipping, and many may drop coverage as higher bills hit.
With a fragile ceasefire—after President Trump threatened a war crime— Trump’s war in Iran is causing chaos abroad and at home. Attacks have continued. The death toll is rising. Gas prices are still up. And we have the most incompetent Secretary of Defense and President leading our country.
Trump is demanding $350 billion more to fund his wars abroad. That’s enough money to restore the enhanced ACA premium tax credits permanently, lowering healthcare costs for 20 million Americans. But Trump is choosing war over healthcare.
During National Public Health Week, we are reminded that gun violence is a public health crisis. Gun violence is preventable. Communities thrive when we invest in evidence‑based solutions, support survivors, and build environments where everyone can live without fear.
I am heartbroken for the family and loved ones of the young man who was shot and killed this morning in South Shore. Gun violence has once again stolen a young life. We cannot accept such violence as normal. We need commonsense solutions to end this public health crisis.
Donald Trump’s threat to wipe out an entire civilization is pure evil. That is not how a President should speak or lead. He plunged the Middle East into chaos, cost US troops their lives, and exacerbated the cost of living at home.
Happy National Public Health Week! This week, I am celebrating the dedicated public health professionals who keep our communities safe and healthy and recognize that building a healthier future is a shared responsibility.
It was an honor to host a reception for the talented students in this year’s 2nd Congressional District High School Art Competition! Thank you to the artists, teachers, and judges in Danville for helping our youth's creativity flourish.
The Illinois Secretary of State, Business Services Department invites you to their Business Services Roadshow, on April 27,2026 at Malcolm X College. This event is designed to connect businesses and community members with valuable resources, services, and support.
I’m still fighting for the full release of the Epstein files. Accountability is non-negotiable for true justice. This Sexual Assault Awareness Month, I am standing with the survivors and working toward a world where consent is clear, justice is attainable, and healing is possible.
This April, we honor the rich history, vibrant culture, and enduring contributions of the Arab American community. Our nation is stronger because of your leadership and heritage. Happy Arab American Heritage Month!
