I have fought for years to make maternal health a national priority. We must support moms before, during, and after labor and close the equity gap for Black moms. Every baby deserves a strong start, and every family deserves a healthy future.
Today, the U.S. earned a D+ grade for preterm birth for the fourth year in a row. As a preemie mom, I’m leading the charge in Congress with @robinkelly.house.gov and Rep. Kiggans to designate November as #PrematurityAwarenessMonth and address challenges faced by families of premature infants.
Graphic. Background is photo of NICU unit. Text reads, “MCCLELLAN, KIGGANS, KELLY INTRODUCE RESOLUTION TO RECOGNIZE NOVEMBER AS PREMATURITY AWARENESS MONTH: RAISING AWARENESS TO ADDRESS THE INFANT AND MATERNAL HEALTH CRISIS.” Logo of Rep. McClellan is present.
SNAP already has strict rules. But Trump's Big Ugly Law adds new barriers that will kick 42 million people off the program—all to hand out a $4.5 trillion tax break to billionaires. That means more empty cupboards and hungry kids. I will always prioritize hardworking families over billionaires.
I was with survivors of Jeffrey Epstein and the @demwomencaucus.bsky.social when we heard the victorious news that the Senate passed the bill to release the Epstein Files. This victory belongs to all the survivors who courageously spoke out and victims who could not be here with us.
I’m voting today to release the Epstein Files. Anyone who votes “no” votes to protect wealthy pedophiles. Epstein and everyone tied to him should be held accountable. Victims deserve answers. America deserves the truth. Release the Epstein Files.
ICE may have reduced its presence in Illinois, but the harm done to our Black and Brown communities remains. People deserve answers. When will ICE comply with the judge’s ruling and release those who should already be home with their families?
Republicans took six weeks off, fully paid by taxpayers, while Americans struggled. Now that Republicans are back in DC, it's time to get to work. Lower everyday costs, save affordable healthcare, and release the Epstein files.
ICE is detaining pregnant immigrants in abhorrent conditions, denying critical prenatal care. I’m demanding that ICE follow its own policies & release pregnant, postpartum, and nursing women. I’m holding ICE accountable for their cruel actions with the @DemWomenCaucus.bsky.social buff.ly/lA7GWGh
One of my constituents, who’s lived in the US since he was 4 years old, was kidnapped by ICE and is now missing. He was at a gas station in South Holland when ICE agents detained him, disconnecting his phone call to his fiance. ICE needs to be held accountable for their Gestapo tactics.
President Trump promised to lower costs on day one, but his Big Ugly Law gave a $4.5 trillion tax break to billionaires. Families in our district will face an average $400 increase in their yearly energy bills. President Trump wants working families to lose while billionaires win.
Republicans created a healthcare crisis, shut down the government, then returned from a 54-day vacation to do nothing about the expiring ACA tax credits. Families cannot trust Republicans with their healthcare. Without ACA tax credits, 15,000 of my constituents face skyrocketing healthcare costs.
A federal judge has ordered ICE to release Diana, a beloved daycare teacher in Chicago. The law is on the side of the people. ICE’s detentions and arrests are illegal. A bond hearing will now be held for Diana. This is the first step in righting this terrible wrong.
Diana Patricia Santillana Galeano was arrested from a North Center preschool in the early morning hours of Nov. 5, prompting widespread backlash.
Even with the government reopening, the healthcare crisis Republicans created has not gone away. Yet again, families are left holding the bag while Republicans avoid taking action. It is clear they cannot govern. I will keep fighting for affordable healthcare.
@HouseDemocrats.bsky.social are standing shoulder to shoulder to protect your healthcare. Republicans’ partisan funding bill jacks up healthcare costs for millions. I was a hell no—and I’ll keep fighting until every family has access to affordable healthcare.
First, President Trump slashed SNAP by nearly $200 billion. Now, Trump is holding what’s left hostage—blocking $5B to feed hungry families. America can afford to feed its people. What we can’t afford is Trump’s cruelty.
Under Director Bovino and Secretary Noem’s reckless leadership, Border Patrol agents shouted “Little Village!” while posing at the Bean—mocking the same community they tear-gassed days earlier. Their photo op tactics are disgusting.
Time and time again, Republicans have shown they serve Donald Trump instead of the American people. I joined the @HouseDemocrats in a discharge petition to force Speaker Johnson to hold a vote to extend the ACA tax credits by 3 years. The American people deserve to have their voices heard.
