Great catching up with mayors and trustees from our District and across Illinois at the Illinois Municipal League. Their dedication keeps our state moving forward, and I’m proud to support & cheer them on every step of the way.
Grateful to receive Black Millennial Renaissance Appreciation Award as Honorary Board Co-Chair. My entire career, I’ve worked to expand opportunity, advance wellness, and end gun violence. I’m proud to support the young leaders who are shaping a brighter future for us all.
I’m heartbroken to hear of the loss of Ryan Whitehouse —an advocate for farmers, leader, and friend to all. His generosity lives on through the gift of life. My prayers are with his family and his IL. Farm Bureau family, who stood by him every step and will carry his spirit forward.
I led my Tri-Caucus colleagues and 81 Members of Congress in demanding Sec. McMahon reject cuts to minority-serving institutions. We can uplift HBCUs & TCUs without draining $350M from PBIs and other MSIs that millions of students of color rely on for opportunity.
Honored to receive the Cancer Champion Award for my work expanding cancer prevention and early detection. I do this in memory of lives lost, warriors currently fighting against cancer, and all impacted by this disease.
In 6 DAYS, the government shuts down, & Republicans are nowhere to be seen. President Trump chickened out & cancelled a meeting with Democrat leaders. Affordable healthcare, food assistance, & vital services are on the line. I am joining @housedemocrats.bsky.social to protect everyday Americans.
My heart is with the families of those killed and injured at the Dallas ICE facility this morning. As we continue to hear more information, one thing is clear: Gun violence affects all of us — whether you’re law enforcement, an immigrant, or a citizen. We need commonsense gun safety laws.
House Republicans are playing a dangerous game with access to affordable healthcare. Their refusal to extend ACA funding threatens to cause premiums to skyrocket for millions. @housedemocrats.bsky.social and I are fighting to stop Republicans’ reckless attempt to dismantle our healthcare.
Republicans are marching our country toward a shutdown in 7 days. Here’s what that means for you: ❌ Longer lines at the airport ❌ Limited Social Security services ❌ Delayed veteran benefits ❌ Closed National Parks Everyday Americans pay the price—because they refused to negotiate.
📢 Did you know my office can assist you with federal agencies such as the IRS, Social Security, and the VA? From checking the status of your tax return to speeding up a passport application, we’re here to support you. 📍 Proudly serving all of IL-02 — contact us anytime: buff.ly/HRDQK0D
What does "land of liberty and justice for all" really mean? It means protecting everyone's rights—like due process and no unlawful searches—no matter one’s immigration status. That's the foundation of our democracy.
This, from a president who cares about "law and order"?    The Trump administration shut down an investigation into Border Czar, Tom Homan, who was caught on tape taking  $50,000 in cash. President Trump only cares about the law when it protects his own.
Border czar Tom Homan was caught on tape accepting a bag filled with $50,000 in cash from an undercover FBI agent in September 2024. Trump officials have shut down the bribery investigation.
I will not allow Republicans to divide us and distract us from the fight for healthcare for all Americans. The truth is, Republicans skipped town with a government shutdown looming in 8 days. They created a healthcare crisis and now refuse to fix it.
"Operation Midway Blitz" isn't about safety—it's about terrorizing our families and communities. Mass raids in our neighborhoods, at places of work, and churches are a direct assault on civil rights and due process. This is cruel and it has to stop.
I am hearing reports of ICE activity increasing in the area. Stay safe, and informed, and remember that regardless of your documentation status, you have rights. 👉🏾Know your rights. 🗞️Follow trusted news sources. 📹Record any ICE encounters.
This week, I joined 30+ manufacturing leaders at the @IMAToday.bsky.social's 7th Annual D.C. Fly-In. We discussed the future of Illinois manufacturing—from food and candy to vehicles and metal fabrication. Together, we’re strengthening our state’s economy.
