Proud to earn a 100% on @lcv.org’s 2025 #LCVScorecard. I’ll continue to fight against Trump’s attacks on our climate and defend: ⚡️ Clean, affordable energy 🗳️ A strong, equitable democracy 🌱 Environmental justice 💧 Clean air and water 🏞️ Our public lands and waters Learn more at lcv.org/scorecard
Trump’s political rampage against Democratic-led states continues, something Illinoisans know all too well. He’s stopped vital funding for Medicaid in Minnesota, punishing hardworking Americans. Trump is willing to sacrifice people’s health to score political points. It’s despicable.
Fourteen years ago today, Trayvon Martin was shot and killed — all because of the color of his skin. He was only 17 years old. So-called Stand Your Ground laws need to be repealed, and Congress must pass gun safety laws instead.
I’m saddened to hear that five people were injured in a mass shooting near Jackson Park last night. And I’m also angry. Our children deserve safe parks. They deserve better. My colleagues in Congress must join me in ending the gun violence epidemic by passing gun safety laws.
The 4,500+ farmers in my district, and farmers across the Midwest, are depending on Congress to deliver year-round, nationwide E15 sales. Republican leadership promised to vote on a bill TODAY to support farmers. But no such bill was scheduled for a vote.
Under DHS Secretary Kristi Noem, ICE is unchecked and dangerous. Her agents have assaulted people, detained pregnant women, and even killed American citizens. I’m impeaching Secretary Noem for breaking the Constitution.
Five years ago, the House passed the #EqualityAct to protect LGBTQ+ Americans. Five years later, it is still not law. I will continue to fight to protect marriage equality, repeal the trans military ban, close health gaps, & support LGBTQ+ people.
Trump's "SAVE" Act doesn’t protect our elections—it targets our democracy by disenfranchising nearly 70 million women. I helped pass the John Lewis Voting Rights Act because in America, voters choose their leaders. Not the other way around.
The President is putting his name on failed policies that cost Americans more: TrumpRx. Trump taxes. Trump performing art centers. Trump accounts. At least we all know who to blame, then, for higher healthcare costs, higher taxes, and higher costs of living.
Trump calls tariffs a “win.” Illinois families call them a tax on eggs, diesel, and rent. The Supreme Court called them illegal. I am fighting for fair trade that protects jobs, not billionaire profits. #SOTU
Once again, Trump is spinning big lies to cover up his Big Ugly Law. Here is the truth. He cut access to health care. Slashed food assistance. Raised costs on working families. Illinois deserves better. Americans deserve better.
Trump: “Our country is the HOTTEST!” Someone’s pants are on fire🔥. Families face $4/gallon for gas, soaring grocery costs, and unattainable housing prices. His wins are for his billionaire besties only. He is out of touch and out of control.
I’m proud to bring Karen Freeman-Wilson, CEO of Chicago Urban League, as my #SOTU2026 guest. For over a century, this organization has built pathways to jobs, homeownership, and small business success for Black Americans.
Trump brags that he’s “totally exonerated,” , yet the DOJ withheld dozens of pages on allegations he abused minors. This NPR reporting confirms what we already know: Trump LIES and OBSTRUCTS JUSTICE. www.npr.org/2026/02/24/n...
Tonight, President Trump will brag about his A+++ economy and the great job he’s doing as president. Americans know the truth: prices are rising, healthcare is unattainable, and unemployment is high. We deserve better than a president who is out of touch and lies about the state of our union.
