The rule of law prevails. The baseless cases against former FBI Director James Comey and New York Attorney General Letitia James have been dismissed because the interim U.S. Attorney Lindsey Halligan—and Trump’s former personal lawyer—was appointed illegally. www.cnbc.com/2025/11/24/t...
This year, the cost of Thanksgiving has increased by 10% due to the actions of Trump and the Republicans. I’m standing up to these policies and fighting like hell to make things more affordable for families.
Happy Thanksgiving. 🦃🍽️ Today we slow down, share a meal, and appreciate the people who lift us up. I am grateful to represent such strong and caring communities. I know this season can be hard for some families; I will keep working every day to support you.
ICE’s Operation Midway Blitz exposed families in my district to reckless, fear-driven tactics, including a raid at an apartment building in South Shore. I visited that apartment to tell residents I’m fighting to restore the safety and dignity our communities lost during these traumatic raids.
Today with Mercedes & Leon, I announced my plans to introduce the WELLS Act—brand-new legislation to implement safe discharge plans. Mercedes Wells was discharged from a hospital while in active labor. That never should have happened, and I’ll make sure it never happens again.
I am fighting alongside @HouseDemocrats.bsky.social to extend Affordable Care Act tax credits because families deserve lower health costs. Republicans are blocking this work. I will keep up the good fight for affordable care for all.
My constituent works hard in the agriculture industry and depends on ACA tax credits to stay covered. Without them, her premium jumps from $336 to $914 a month. That is not affordable. No one should live in fear of losing coverage. I am fighting for her.
Thank you to everyone who joined me for today's Social Security and Medicare Town Hall. My constituents have been my north star since I took office in 2013. Your questions and stories drive my work in Congress and keep me focused on delivering for our community.
ICE’s detention of pregnant women risks serious injury or even death. This cannot continue. I led 60 lawmakers in sending a letter to DHS/ICE, demanding that they follow federal regulations protecting pregnant women from detainment and inhumane mistreatment.
Proud to receive the Advancing Good Governance Award from Center Forward presented by Ambassador Anniken Huitfeldt. Common sense, bipartisan solutions lower costs and help families. I will keep putting progress over politics.
Working folks do not need more chaos. We need steady paychecks and fair prices. I will keep standing up to President Trump and his allies to lower costs, protect jobs, and make the economy work for all of us.
Illinois families are paying $766 more because of President Trump and Republicans. Costs of groceries, gas, and rent keep climbing while working people fall behind. I am fighting his reckless, cost-raising agenda.
Trump chose billionaires over families. His Big Ugly Law makes historic SNAP cuts while millions struggle to put food on the table. I joined @HouseDemocrats.bsky.social to repeal these cuts and protect kids. No one should go hungry while the rich get richer. www.wowt.com/2025/11/20/d...
