I was so moved to meet Kairo and his parents, Javiel and Kelveans, at my town hall this week. Thank you for attending and for sharing your powerful story. I am truly inspired by your strength as Kairo prepares to start school this year.

In our district, 153,298 people rely on Social Security. Ninety years after President Roosevelt created this vital program, Democrats are still fighting to protect the benefits you've earned—unlike President Trump and House Republicans who have threatened to cut them.

Thank you, @ilattygeneral.bsky.social, for joining me at my town hall on Monday night. I appreciate your commitment to protecting Illinoisans from President Trump’s unconstitutional actions.

After 90 years of Social Security, President Trump is threatening checks for millions of seniors while giving a $4.5T tax break to billionaires. That's wrong. I'm fighting to protect & enhance benefits for the 2.3M people in Illinois who rely on them.

President Trump, you can't rewrite history. Our history, in all its complexity, must be preserved. The Smithsonian is not a political tool to be used for your white-washed narrative—it is a trusted institution that tells the full American story.

White House orders review of Smithsonian exhibits to ensure alignment with Trump directives | CNN Politics

The White House is conducting a comprehensive internal review of exhibits and materials at the Smithsonian Institution in an effort to comply with President Donald Trump’s directive about what should…

President Trump's tariffs and his Big, Ugly Law are raising the cost of living, not helping. He’s raising inflation—hurting everyday Americans trying to afford groceries, rent, and bills who are already struggling. We need to lower costs for families, not make things worse.

U.S. Inflation Report Shows Effects of Trump’s Tariffs

A gauge of underlying inflation in July showed prices increasing at the fastest annual pace in five months, a sign that businesses are passing along tariff-related costs to customers.

I wrote an op-ed with @chuygarcia.house.gov proving that Black and Brown people are stronger together against President Trump’s cruel immigration policies. Together, we demand a country that values every life. We cannot — and will not — be divided. chicago.suntimes.com/other-views/...

Congresswoman Robin Kelly@robinkelly.house.govAug 13(source)

Proud to speak at the A. Philip Randolph Institute's 54th annual education conference. It was a powerful reminder that our fight for workers' rights continues. We have the strength to win — let's use it.

I am appalled but stand resolute in my support for the LGBTQ+ community. I'm a proud co-sponsor of the #EqualityAct & will continue to demand its passage. LGBTQ+ People deserve to be protected from discrimination. My Republican colleagues must join us.

Supreme Court formally asked to overturn landmark same-sex marriage ruling

10 years after the Supreme Court extended marriage rights to all same-sex couples, it will consider whether to take a case asking it to overturn the decision.

The CBO report proves that President Trump’s Big, Ugly law is indefensible. He is stealing from working families and giving more to billionaires. This is not fiscal responsibility—it's a shameful wealth transfer. Hardworking Americans deserve better.

Trump's tax law will mostly benefit the rich, while leaving poorer Americans with less, CBO says

President Donald Trump’s tax and spending law will result in less income for the poorest Americans while sending money to the riches, according to a new report from the nonpartisan Congressional…

Black unemployment hit 7.2%—the highest level since October 2021 and higher than the general unemployment rate. That’s not just a stat but a reality. It’s time to confront systemic inequality and work to make sure everyone has a fair shot.

US job growth stalls: Just 73,000 jobs added in July, with ‘stunning’ downward revisions to recent months | CNN Business

The US job market slowed substantially in July and was much weaker than first estimated for prior months, suggesting President Donald Trump’s trade policy may be stifling hiring.

College already costs too much. President Trump is making it even more expensive. The Trump admin capped federal student loans, cut Pell Grants, and ended income-based repayments.

What the 'One Big Beautiful Bill' will change for students, schools and colleges

School vouchers are going national and the federal student loan system is getting an overhaul. Here's what to know.

An important discussion at my town hall with @ilattygeneral.bsky.social‬ Kwame Raoul and ACLU's Ed Yohnka. 🗣️ We focused on key issues: Medicaid, immigration, and education. We will continue to stand strong against President Trump's dangerous agenda. 💪🏾

Trump’s attacks on @704afge.bsky.social is an attack on all working people. Federal employees keep our country running and deserve respect, fair treatment, and a seat at the table. This isn't about politics—it's about justice. I stand with AFGE and all workers’ rights.

E&E News: EPA axes contracts with unions

The agency cited "national security" in moving to terminate the collective bargaining agreements.

Many children are starting a new school year and need updated technology to keep up with their education. President Trump’s tariffs on imported computer chips will only increase costs for everyday families.

A productive conversation with the SEIU interns this week. I am consistently inspired by the perspectives and passion of our future leaders.

Congresswoman Robin Kelly@robinkelly.house.govAug 10(source)

I am horrified by reports that the Trump administration will scale back its criticism of human rights abuses abroad. Our nation has a moral obligation to condemn such abuses, whether they happen in Russia, El Salvador, or right here at home.
